How we use AI

What is not AI

The core preflight checks (bleed, trim size, color mode, image resolution/DPI and font embedding), RGB → CMYK conversion, bleed extension and crop marks are rule-based calculations. They do not use AI.

1. AI fix plan

• What it does: a large language model writes step-by-step instructions for fixing the issues found, for the design app you pick.
• Data sent: only the technical check results (for example “page 1 missing bleed”, image sizes and DPI). Your PDF file itself is not sent.
• Provider: a language model accessed through Abacus.AI.
• Labeling: the plan is shown under a clear “AI-generated” notice.

2. AI image upscaling

• What it does: an AI super-resolution model (Real-ESRGAN) enlarges a low-resolution image 4×. The model predicts new detail, so the result is AI-generated imagery based on your original.
• Data sent: only the image you choose to upscale, sent to Replicate, which runs the model.
• When it runs: only when you click to upscale an image. It never runs automatically.

Limitations — please review before printing

• AI output can be wrong, incomplete or not suited to your software version. Always check the fix plan against your printer’s specifications.
• Upscaled images can contain artifacts, softened text or invented details. Inspect them at full size, especially faces, logos and small type.
• You are responsible for approving your final file before it goes to press, and for having the rights to any image you upload.

Your data and AI training

We do not use your files or results to train AI models. No automated decision with legal or similarly significant effects is made about you.
