How It Works
01 Create a new order
02 Receive a proof for review
When we have finished the first draft of the corrected or updated file we will email you to review it.
You can view and check everything CMYKhub Design Desk creates by using the built-in online proofing. This makes collaborating with our team so easy.
03 Revise or approve the order
Using the online proofing platform, you can use the annotation tools to make comments on particular parts of the design you need altered.
If the design is to your satisfaction, then you can simply approve the artwork.
04 Receive your file
When the artwork is approved, the print-ready PDF file will be available to download and you can submit it to chosen print supplier.
If your brief is clear, then you can be confident that the final artwork will meet CMYKhub’s print-ready standards.
Features
Built-in project management software
Our Design Desk platform provides a clear overview of your projects so you and your team know exactly where they are up to.
The Kanban board workflow allows you to easily track the progress and set priorities.
Manage your subscription
You can clearly view what resources you have left to use in the month within the platform.
You can easily upgrade, downgrade, purchase additional orders, hours or storage as you go.
