Created to answer the demands of a growing digital market, ONYX PosterShop and ProductionHouse provide several different types of proofing, including In-House Preprint Proofing, Remote Proofing, Soft Proofing and Prepress proofing..

In-House Preprint and Remote Proofing
ProductionHouse can improve your print service by helping you communicate color with your print buyers. ProductionHouse includes a proofing workflow that can automatically print color proofs of any job to any proofing printer. So with just a simple click you can offer your print buyers color contract and concept proofs of their large-format jobs without affecting your production.

Proofing in ONYX ProductionHouse is easy. You can have one printer your final output printer and one your proofi ng printer. Your final output printer is the printer on which you wish to print the final image; the proofing printer is the printer on which you will “test” your image. This allows you to review a smaller representation of your image without wasting the ink and media of the final output printer.
