Help/When things go wrong/Pull back or fix a proof

Pull back or fix a proof

Take back a proof you've sent, or clear one approved with changes.

What this is for

Sometimes a proof goes out before it should, or the customer approves it but asks for changes. Neither is a dead end — production stays blocked until it's sorted, which is the point.

Step by step

  1. 1

    Open the job's Approvals tab to see proofs you've sent.

  2. 2

    To pull one back before the customer acts, revoke the request.

  3. 3

    To replace artwork, upload a new version — the old one is superseded automatically and stops counting.

  4. 4

    If the customer approved with changes, read their notes and clear it there before production starts.

Tips & gotchas

  • →A rejected proof blocks production until a new version is approved.
  • →Superseded proofs are ignored by the production gate, so only the current version matters.
  • →If a deposit was required with the proof, production stays held until that's paid too.
