It goes through many stages of content development, design, and marketing. Yet ensuring high quality and maintaining standards is a crucial aspect for all.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Magazine proofing is getting the magazine&#8217;s content, design, and marketing collateral reviewed and approved online.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When we say online, we mean on a platform that allows you to collaborate with your team, upload and edit files, and invite stakeholders and managers to oversee your progress and mark their approvals.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s take <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/govisually.com\/blog\/online-proofing-for-photographers\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">online proofing for photography<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> magazines as an example here. Your team uploads cover ideas with images of high quality; you mark areas where it needs changes or attach other pictures for inspiration. The designer understands feedback clearly and resolves it right on the spot for everyone to see and move ahead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That sounds like a walk in the park if you&#8217;re doing it right. Yet again, a streamlined workflow isn&#8217;t the only benefit of magazine proofing.

Being on the same platform will save you from long email threads and 20 different chat rooms.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ensures_brand_compliance\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ensures brand compliance\u00a0<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It&#8217;s that slightly different tone of blue that your brand uses, but how do you explain that to your designer? Online proofing software that allows you to leave visual feedback and annotate a PDF or image will free you from the shackles of only using verbal feedback as the only way of communication.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Collaborating_in_real-time\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Collaborating in real-time<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Endless meetings often end up killing the creative drive in you. And for magazines, creativity stands as the most valued quality. That is where online proofing software can help you avoid long hours of meetings and collaborate with each member of the team efficiently.<\/p>\n<p>You can leave comments, tag relevant people, and get all these notifications on your project dashboard in real-time.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"No_more_missed_deadlines\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No more missed deadlines!<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A good online proofing software like GoVisually also reminds you when a project deadline is approaching. This way, you can always stay on top of your game and finish work timely.<\/p>\n<p>This feature also helps you organize all your projects and lets you plan your workload for the week.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Helps_categorize_and_organize_projects\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Helps categorize and organize projects<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>One of the biggest hassles you can find yourself in is the disorientation of assets.<\/p>\n<p>Imagine spending hours on finding a project because it wasn&#8217;t categorized properly or missing out on an important design because you couldn&#8217;t trace it in the files. Now that can be a real nightmare for editors.<\/p>\n<p>But with online proofing software, you can avoid that. It helps you categorize all designs and PDFs into different projects so you can access them easily and download them directly from the app when needed.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gets_you_fast_approvals_from_stakeholders\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gets you fast approvals from stakeholders<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>The ping pong of getting approval from stakeholders can prove to be a real struggle. You&#8217;d often chase them for days, if not weeks, to get feedback and support.<\/p>\n<p>And one of the reasons why that happens is because the assets get lost in email threads, or the feedback isn&#8217;t rightly suggested. With online proofing software, you can avoid both these major roadblocks. All the suggestions you make using GoVisually are highlighted as comments, and you can even compare versions of the same design to see exactly what has been changed. This speeds up the feedback process and helps you get faster approvals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_must-have_features_to_create_great_magazine_proofs\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6 must-have features to create great magazine proofs<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Now that you know how crucial magazine proofing is, let&#8217;s review the 6 must-have features that a great online proofing software should have to assist in faster and better magazine proofs.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-11245 size-large\" src=\"http:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-24x24.png 24w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-48x48.png 48w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs-96x96.png 96w, https:\/\/govisually.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/6-must-have-features-to-create-great-magazine-proofs.png 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Assorted_file_support\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Assorted file support<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>It should support all kinds of files to make things easier for you. With GoVisually, you can upload and annotate any file type, including WebM and WebP files. You can also easily upload video and GIF files and add timestamps&#8217; feedback.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Time-stamped_comment_checklist\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Time-stamped comment checklist<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Speaking of efficient feedback and adding your comments to the exact timeframes can simplify things for both parties. And with GoVisually, you can do that. This helps the designer understand where the change is needed exactly and makes reviewing for you easier as you&#8217;d be able to compare the timestamps.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Full_version_control\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Full version control<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>You should also have access to the complete edit history. This way, you&#8217;ll be able to trace changes and make final edits without wondering what changed.<\/p>\n<p>GoVisually takes this forward and lets you compare different versions of the same proof. This side-by-side comparison allows you to see the changes and decide which understanding is better. Thus, minimizing the review time.<\/p>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Visual_annotations\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Visual annotations<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Who doesn&#8217;t like simplifying the feedback?<\/p>\n<p>And one of the best ways to do that is to make things visual so that they can be seen easily.
