Access to proofing functionality in Workfront
Proofing is automatically included for all licenses in the Workfront. Licenses determine what users can do.
The legacy 2017 Workfront packages include proofing automatically for Work and Plan licenses if you have the pro, business or enterprise Workfront plans. These plans are being phased out.
If you are a Workfront administrator, you can check and see which plan your instance is on by going to Setup > System > Licenses.
