magSend

magSend is ColorQuick's web-to-print system for ad submission to magazines. Recommended by almost every major US publisher, this system provides a complete online prepress service to ensure that your ads reproduce properly in the publication of your choice. Powered by the magSpecs database, this workflow ensures that your ad submission meets all your publisher's requirements, without you even having to look them up! Various types of proofs are available in this workflow, as well as access to The Vault Digital Asset Management.

In less than 15 minutes the magSend workflow provides:

  • Preflight for quality as well as specific publisher requirements. (Digital ad specs for over 500 magazines are in our database)
