It's embarrassing when you submit a work and the client points out a mistake that you should have noticed. Moreover, It may also disappoint the customer.

However, it is difficult to notice if there is a change that is not ordered in the DTP manuscript.

But with XOR, you can easily find all the modification points.

However, it is difficult to control the power balance between the ordering side and the receiving side. Therefore, the best way to deal with this is to prevent mistakes from spilling out on the production side.

Since XOR is a subscription offering at 2,000 yen per month (tax included), your company can install it for your entire production staff. This allows everyone to compare PDFs to their heart's content at any time, reducing the chance of mistakes being missed.

If the PDFs you submit have missing corrections or unnecessary changes, you will lose the trust of your clients.

With XOR, you can export a PDF that proves "I didn't make any extra changes anywhere except where you ordered to make changes. If you attach that to your submission, you can easily gain the client's trust. Also, if you check the PDF before submitting, you will notice any unnecessary changes.

Proofreading requires a high level of concentration and skill, and it takes time. You will want to do it more efficiently.

Some kind of PDF comparison app can help you identify what has been changed and minimize the proofreading process.

And XOR is probably the easiest PDF comparison app to install, easy to use, and swift!

You can standardize the process of finding the changes and checking them against the DTP manuscript to make sure they are correct.

With XOR, you can easily find all the changes and reduce the time taken for proofreading.

By implementing XOR for the entire production staff and reducing the number of "re-correct," you can reduce production period and save money.

If the PDF of the work created by the DTP operator is found to have any omissions or unnecessary changes, the editor has to create a new DTP manuscript, ask the operator to re-correct it, and wait for it to be finished. This means a second round of DTP production cycle. And if there is a mistake, a third cycle is required, prolonging the turnaround time and increasing the cost.

If XOR can be installed on the operator's PC and used at any time, the operator can notice mistakes and prevent unnecessary cycles from occurring. If XOR is also installed on the editor's PC, the efficiency of proofreading will be improved.

A PDF comparison app of the type that shares a USB dongle for copy protection may cause you to wait to use the app. Nevertheless, if you don't use the app because you are hesitant or can't wait, the possibility of missing unnecessary changes increases.

XOR is a subscription offering for 2,000 yen per month (tax included), so you can install it for your entire production staff.

It is unclear how many changes exist between the before and after PDFs, which may not be the same as the number of correction orders in the DTP manuscript. It is possible that changes were made where there was no corrective order, or that the corrective order was ignored.

With XOR, it is easy to find out all the changes, with or without correction orders

It is annoying to have to check to see if changes have occurred that are unrelated to the correction order.

If you check carefully, you might miss something. You might also spend a lot of time and not find anything.

With XOR, it is easy to find out all the changes, with or without correction orders

In DTP work, it is an ironclad rule not to touch any part of the document that does not have correction orders. However, in the process of correction, it is often necessary to temporarily move neighboring elements. And if you forget to move them back after the correction, they will remain as unnecessary changes. Moreover, the DTP operator may overlook it because they tend to think that the correction was done correctly.

If XOR is introduced to the DTP operator's machine, an objective viewpoint can be obtained. And the operator's own self-checking accuracy will be improved.

DTP operators tend to be lax in self-checking the results of their own work.

If XOR is introduced to the DTP operator's machine, an objective viewpoint can be obtained. And the operator's own self-checking accuracy will be improved.

Especially for inexperienced staff, it is easy to miss even the most common mistakes.

Therefore, it is a good way to install XOR on all the staff's machine. If everyone can use it at any time, they can improve their proofreading accuracy.

It may be difficult to print out proof paper when working from home, unlike in the office. Even if you could, it would be costly (in Japan, convenience store printing costs 50 yen per A4/B4 color paper).

Therefore, proofreading should be done on a PDF basis as much as possible without paper.

XOR can be used at work or at home with the same account, and it helps you with PDF-based proofreading.

There are two types of comparison methods in XOR as follows. You can double-check by yourself.

• Overlapped pages
• Blink pages

There is a strong need to install multiple licenses of PDF comparison applications to work in parallel, but it may be difficult to buy more expensive applications.

XOR is offered on a monthly subscription basis for 2,000 yen (tax included), which will allow you to install it for your entire production staff.

Some PDF comparison applications require you to adjust the comparison options to match the features of the PDFs to be compared.

However, it is often difficult to determine whether the PDF you are comparing is text-based or image-based, and if it is a booklet, the structure of each page will be different.

XOR does not have a comparison option. Just press the space key to display the comparison results.

The clarity of the comparison results affects the work efficiency and accuracy of the proofreading.

The comparison results of XOR are intuitive for everyone. There is no need to master how to read or understand them.

This is because XOR's "Overlapped pages" mimics the state of a stack of two papers on a tracing table, lit from below. And the "Blink pages" is clear for everyone because it mimics real world old techniques that called "Aori" or "Pera Pera" using proof paper.

Many PDF comparison apps adopt a USB dongle for copy protection. The reason for this is that if pirated copies are made available, the development companies will lose their income. It is an unavoidable measure. However, the application can only be used on a PC with a USB dongle attached, so there will be a waiting list of users.

XOR is a subscription offering for 2,000 yen per month (tax included), so you can install it for your entire staff and everyone can use it as much as they wish, whenever they need it.

PDF comparison applications that adopt a USB dongle for copy protection can only be used by one person at a time. For this reason, priority is given to the use of veteran editors who work on important projects in the department. Younger staff, DTP operators, and outsourced staff may not be allowed to use it as easily.

XOR is a subscription offering for 2,000 yen per month (tax included), so you can install it for your entire staff and everyone can use it as much as they wish, whenever they need it.

XOR does not adopt a USB dongle for copy protection, and the same account can be used both at work and at home. So when an emergency arises, you may not have to go to your office on holiday or cancel a planned trip for compare PDFs.

Even if the corona pandemic is contained, more worker will want to work from home.

「If you can switch to working from home just when you can't come to the office, it will be advantageous for you to carry out your work. For example, if your child has a fever, the commuter train stops, or you break your leg and can't go out.

XOR does not have a USB dongle for copy protection, and the same account can be used at office or home.

Many PDF comparison applications take a long time to display the results after starting the comparison. This is because they adopt the batch processing to look for differences.

The time required depends on the number of pages and the density of the content of the PDFs to be compared, so for large PDFs, you may have to wait several minutes or more than 10 minutes.

There is almost no waiting time for XOR. Just press the space key and the comparison result will be displayed immediately. This is a so-called real-time comparison.

PDF comparison apps that analyze and compare two PDFs tend to be slower because of the complex processing.

XOR runs lighter.

In a PDF comparison application that analyzes and matches two PDFs, the pairing of elements will not succeed depending on the data structure of the PDFs.

And sometimes there are comparison omissions. It is unpredictable in what cases comparison omissions will occur.

In a PDF comparison application that analyzes and matches two PDFs, the pairing of elements will not succeed depending on the data structure of the PDFs.

And sometimes they report that something has been "changed" when it has not. There is no way to predict when a false positive will occur.

Moreover, it is a tedious task to make sure that there is really no difference between a pair of seemingly identical pages.

XOR reports the differences visually, so the changes are apparent.

There is always no upgrade fee for XOR.

XOR has a simple functional structure, so the usage will be almost the same after the upgrade.

XOR does not adopt a USB dongle for license management.

The XOR license is tied to an individual Apple ID or Microsoft account.

A major issue for freelance producers who complete their work alone is quality.

XOR gives you an objective perspective and allows you to discover correction errors that you might have overlooked on your own.

PDF comparison applications are often beneficial but expensive, so it may be difficult for individuals to get a hold of them.

With XOR, you can use it for a monthly subscription of 2,000 yen (tax included). And the first month is a free trial period.

You can unsubscribe the XOR if you no longer need it. Moreover, the first month is a free trial period.

With XOR, you can unsubscribe for the period you don't need it. You are also free to subscribe again.

Family members are also an important asset to a free lance producer.

XOR is so easy to use that even elementary school children will be able to master it without difficulty. In fact, they may even enjoy playing a game of "find the mistakes" to find all the differences.

It is also for the children themselves. This is because children who develop the habit of helping others are more likely to be successful in society in the future.

You may be disappointed if the PDF submitted by the producer contains omitted corrections or unnecessary changes. The time it takes for the PDF to be submitted again is time that should not have been spent.

Therefore, you should require the producer to attach a PDF exported with the XOR "Export both PDFs overlapped" when submitting. This PDF proves that "nothing has been changed except for the ordered changes", so if there are any unnecessary changes, the creator can be expected to notice them when the PDF is exported.

Even if you are in the position of placing a production order, you may want to make sure that the proofreading PDFs you received.

However, visual proofreading is time-consuming and inefficient, so it is a good way to adopt a PDF comparison application.

XOR is a PDF comparison application that is inexpensive and easy to use.

We are looking for a distributor for XOR.

We often get inquiries from production companies asking for an invoice because they want to signe up for multiple licenses of XOR and want to pay annually. But the Mac App Store and Microsoft Store do not support such payments.

In addition, some print production companies are finding it difficult to use the volume license management tools provided by Apple and Microsoft.

So we are looking for an agency that can handle subscription contracts on behalf of our clients and invoice them for their fees on top of the subscription cost.

For example, if you receive a request from a production company that needs 10 licenses, you can make a subscription agreement on their behalf. If so. (2,000 yen + commission) x 10 users x 12 months invoice every year. We will leave it to you to decide the amount of commission and how to handle any increase or decrease in the number of accounts in the middle of the contract.
