Trouble in Prepress
I laughed at first, but then the word kept coming up again and again as the “top prepress problem.” For those unaware of the customer’s role as a prepress impediment, here’s the gist of the complaints I read: They change their minds every few seconds. They don’t really know what they want. They all think they’re designers—but still can’t prepare a file correctly. And they never fail to complain that the job doesn’t look like it did on their screens.
