IMPORTANT

This article refers to functionality in the standalone product Workfront Proof. For information on proofing inside Adobe Workfront, see Proofing.

This example explains the basic workflow between a designer or project manager and one or more reviewers, such as a client.

Create new proof - The designer or project manager creates a new proof in Workfront Proof and shares the proof with the client. (See Generate Proofs in Workfront Proof.)
New proof email - The client receives an email containing a link to the proof.
Review a proof - The client reviews the proof, adds comments and makes a decision. (See Review proofs within Adobe Workfront and Make a decision on a proof in the proofing viewer.)
Email alert - the designer or project manager receives an email with a summary of the client’s review, depending on the email alerts they have set. (See Configure email notification settings in Workfront Proof.)
New version (if required) - The designer or project manager amends the file and uploads it to Workfront Proof as a new version. (See .)

You can repeat this process until the proof is approved.
