• Show Actual Pixels – One pixel of the screen is equal to one pixel of the job.
This is shown at 100%. This view mode has the quickest load time as
resampling for scaling is not required.
• Show Actual Print Size – Show the print size of the job.
• Fit Width/Height – Fit the job to the height or width of the SoftProof window.
• 90 CW – Rotate the image 90 degrees clockwise.

• 180 – Rotate the image 180 degrees.
• Invert – Invert (negate) the image.
• Mirror – Mirror the image.
• Autocrop – Remove any whitespace around a job. There must be a completely
clear area on any one side of the job.
• Unsharp Mask – Apply an unsharp mask to the image. This will affect the edges
within the image.
• Full Screen – Switch between full screen mode and window mode.
• Thumbnails – Select the Thumbnails tab within the SoftProof window.
• Page Index – Select the Page Index tab within the SoftProof window.
• Notes – Select the Notes tab within the SoftProof window.
• Loupe – Display a virtual loupe on top of the loaded image. The loupe can be
resized and magnification level changed if required. The current magnification
is shown at the bottom of the Loupe; 100% means 1 screen to 1 job pixel.
Thumbnail Panel
The thumbnail panel displays a small image of any jobs currently open in SoftProof. Clicking on the
relevant image will switch the SoftProof preview to that window.
Notes Panel
Notes gives users the ability to draw a text box on the imaged
or rendered SoftProof to make a note. The note is attached to
the job file and remains attached until it is either deleted or the job is
removed from the system. There is no limit to how many notes can be
created, and they can be shown or hidden as required.
Notes cannot be attached to files opened in SoftProof via File Menu > Open
Files. The file needs to be submitted as a job before any embedding of notes can take place.
When creating a note with the Note Editor, a configurable arrowhead pointer option is available along with the existing
area marker for a more precise commentary on the job. The User and Group of the note creator are also displayed (see
Secure Mode). Notes can be edited or the pointer adjusted by double-­‐clicking on the Note.
The Note panel displays any notes attached to the job currently selected in the main viewing window. There is also a
Note column in the QueueManager showing the number of notes attached to a particular job. The Notes icon on the left
menu bar is used when adding Notes to the softproofed image. The Notes icon in the right panel is used to display or
hide any notes on the image.
• Show Notes – Show or hide the notes on the preview. Notes can also be toggled by clicking the icon on the right
panel (see image above).
• Text – The text making up the note.
• User / Group – The User and Group responsible for the note.
Page Index Panel
The Page Index panel displays a numbered box for each page making up the loaded publication. This
allows for direct navigation to any page by clicking on the page number. Hovering the mouse over a page
number will pop-­‐up a thumbnail for the page.
