Direct is a PDF validation and transmission tool that uses Quickcut's database of media specifications to ensure PDFs submitted conform to the latest specification for that title.

QuickCheck is a browser-based file validation and delivery tool. Firms submitting advertisements don't need to install any software to use the service.

Advertisers can select the desired publication, section and advert size. It also provides a copy tracking function in addition to Quickcut's checking and validation of the file's accuracy.

"We now provide a choice of services for all levels from high volume right down to the occasional user," said Quickcut Europe chief executive Joe Jarrett.
