Motor Transport Digital Specification

Motor Transport Digital Specification

Please submit your digital advertisement by RBI Check-n-Send:

(If you are a first time user of the system please read the following and download)

This product is internet based and an easy way of checking that a piece of electronic artwork is correct and provides job ticketing and routing for the copy through to RBI's Transport titles (Commercial Motor, Motor Transport, Truck & Driver).

To use RBI Check-n-Send there is a one off process of downloading a plug-in, which installs an icon onto the users desktop. Files are simply dragged to the Icon where the user is then asked to confirm the magazine and ad type (Display or Classified). The ad type is then pre-flight checked. Once the preflight report has been accepted a job ticket will appear to be filled in, and then routed direct to the appropriate journal.

The URL of the product is www.rbiadcopy.com

Acceptable Formats
