Now for the nuts and bolts of our operation.
First of is file storage. This is one of the most important items in a team environment. We do not store any jobs on a desktop computer. When a job is worked on it is pulled down from the server, worked on, then copied up when you are done with it. This ensures that nobody has exclusive access to any job files.
Next is all 15 Macs are configured identically. Same software, Quark, Adobe CS (soon to be CS2) and any application needed in production. Everything is the same including items on the desktop and positions in the dock. This helps efficiency if you have to work on someone elses system.
Everyone posseses these skills:
Typsetting forms or any type of document.
Digital file prep.
Preflighting.
Film output of ripped and trapped files.
Plating for 45 different press sizes.
