We have a steady relationship with our printer but are introducing a deluxe booklet with gatefold pages next month. I want to make sure the first run lands without reprints. Given the files we prepare now, recommend the preflight checklist additions and the specific proofing deliverable I should mandate (flattened single-file proof, color-accurate hard proof, or imposition PDF) so the press has no excuse. Also give the wording for a cover note that clarifies we will accept small trimming variances but not color shifts.

No. Each page gives you a ready prompt you can paste into an AI assistant, plus the plain steps to do it yourself. Start with either — the goal is the finished job, not the tool.
