When packaging files are sent back and forth via email, things get lost. Feedback is vague. Color accuracy is assumed, not verified. And once it’s on the press or in production, changes become expensive or impossible.
For print and packaging teams, common issues include:
These are not “nice to fix” problems, they’re “must fix” if you want to stay on budget and on time.
GoProof was built with these exact challenges in mind. It gives creative, prepress, compliance, and print teams one secure space to collaborate on artwork, from concept to final sign-off.
GoProof supports design elements specific to packaging, such as die-lines, fold marks, bleeds and safety margins. Stakeholders can comment directly on these features to prevent miscommunication between designers and printers.
Need Pantone precision or CMYK confidence? GoProof displays proofs in print-accurate color profiles so color-critical elements are reviewed exactly as they’ll appear on the final product.
Designers can send artwork directly from Illustrator or InDesign into GoProof, maintaining quality and saving time. No more saving separate files or renaming versions manually.
Packaging often involves new product lines or confidential branding updates. GoProof’s confidential proofing ensures that sensitive concepts are protected during review.
Need to prove who approved the final ingredients list or legal copy? GoProof keeps a timestamped record of every comment, version, and approval, vital for regulatory or brand compliance.
Signature Press, a 30-year-old full-service printing and design firm, optimized their creative workflows with GoProof. Before GoProof, they faced challenges with unclear feedback and version confusion from email-based proofing, leading to wasted time.
As Michael Terry from Signature Press stated: "I think we save two hours a day – maybe even three - that wouldn’t be overstating it. And we charge about $85 an hour. For us, that’s a pretty big change and that’s a big change for them too, as they get that saving as well."
After implementing GoProof's online proofing software, Signature Press significantly reduced miscommunications, achieved faster turnaround times, and saw vastly improved client satisfaction across their diverse projects.
With packaging being one of the most visible parts of a brand, your design deserves better than email markup and PDF juggling. Online proofing provides a structured, secure, and scalable way to manage revisions.
Whether you’re designing chocolate bar wrappers, cosmetics cartons, or high-volume retail displays, GoProof brings the accuracy your process needs, and the efficiency your deadlines demand.
Smarter Proofing. Faster Approvals. GoProof.
