It is quick and easy to create proofs directly from Adobe Express and send them out to a PageProof workflow using the PageProof add-on. Then, when a to-do list has been returned, view the comments in the panel allowing you to quickly address feedback.

The PageProof add-on for Adobe Express lets you:

  • Create proofs and new versions from Adobe Express

  • View comments in the panel within Adobe Express

  • Reply to comments

  • Place comment text, in a click

  • Download comment attachments.

And more.

Firstly, add the PageProof add-on for Adobe Express.

With your Adobe Express design open, open the PageProof add-on.

If prompted, log into your PageProof account.
