Developed in 2002, this project utilised a third party Internet Explorer ActiveX component to allow customers of a printing company to "pre-flight" their files ready for printing on their own computers. The ActiveX component would upload an XML summary of the file to the Perl driven website which would check the details against records stored in an Microsoft Access database.
Once the file had been "passed", the user would then be able to upload it to an FTP server which was "watched" by Adlive - once the file had been uploaded, the user would be notified and the file would be placed within their "basket".
After the user had built their "basket", they could then select which of the 6 magazine printing companies the files should be sent to and the files would then be sent via FTP.
