Definitions->File Classes


Files Classes are another name for File Types. FlightCheck uses a sophisticated preflight engine that essentially classifies or determines the type of file you are preflighting. If FlightCheck does not recognize the file you have preflighted, you can receive feedback in a few different ways:


1) If the file is say a version of Quark or InDesign that FlightCheck does not recognize you will receive an Unreadable, Unsupported or Locked message in the Results Windows if the Ground Control “Unreadable, Unsupported, or Locked” has been set to the Warning or Error State.

2) If the Unreadable, Unsupported, or Locked” Ground Control has been set to a Warning or Error state you may also just see red or blue text at the top of the Overview Window next to the Application area and, no entry in the Results Window.

If you encounter a file type that FlightCheck does not understand, and that file type and version are listed as supported in the Version Support List found on Markzware’s website, then please send in a Tech Support Request and submit your unrecognized file along with the request. Since there are so many ways of building files, including what image types are used, what fonts are used and third party Plug-Ins or XTensions, in order for Markzware to see if we can figure out what the problem is, we need your file.
