Agency workflow suggestions – With ESEF

With CtrlPrint, you have the benefit of choosing your own workflow; there is no one set way of doing things. However, if you need guidance to get started, we've provided suggestions for agencies based on whether the client is new to CtrlPrint and whether they use our ESEF tagger tool. We hope this will help you gain an understanding of what needs to be done, when, and by whom.
