Failed Files
If a PDF fails FileCheck 2.0, then we deliver the failed PDF to your FTP portal and a message is displayed in the Files for Production.
To locate the failed PDF simply log into your FTP software, and browse to the Rejects folder. We also have a link in the Files for Production to the failed file for you to download, just click the Download Failed File button to retreive the failed PDF.
The failed PDF will have been through FileCheck and had corrections made to it, you'll need to rectify the issue causing the failure and resubmit the PDF. Alternately you may elect to use the failed PDF and risk the error.
The failed file may not have completed the whole FileCheck process, and thus the file delivered back may not be completely checked.
We keep failed files for 14 days.
