We convert a large amount of our material into low rez pdfs for the
clients to review / approve. Right now we are not consistent on how
we get feedback / approval. We drop our PDFs on our FTP server for
the clients to pick up, they then review and some email back changes,
some use pdf commenting, some call in their changes. We would like to
streamline this and in the process get better documentation of history
[ie dates of changes and by whom]. We're not doing final proofs like
a printer. Once we get their changes/approval we then produce press
quality pdfs that we send to our vendors. So this is more of a
preliminary set of proofing.

I've looked in to live cycle but that seems like it's way more complex
then what we need, and to tell you the truth I'm confused by what it
does.

Does anyone have a software system they use to post files, allow
secure login, viewing, downloading, uploading, comments, signatures,
tracking of changes etc? I'm still at the beginning of my research a
quick google got some hits, but I'd feel better researching deeper
into something a professional from our list has found success with
than just randomly picking something to research.

Any information is welcome. Thanks and sorry for the slight off topic-ness.

Cheers!
-Rosie
