Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention define a Soft Proofing System (SPS) that optimizes the usage of standards and common technologies, without relying on proprietary technologies, to enable the use of a pure web browser environment, without the need for any additional software installation to work together with a server-side application to control and verify accuracy of reception and establish mutual communication in the approval process. This may create an opportunity for large scale, CMS driven, publishing systems, to provide an accurate, distributed, optimized and highly productive collaborative environment to accomplish fast, up to the minute delivery of digital assets to be output to multiple mediums (print and digital formats).
