The protective shield provides a new level of protection for the crew of a passenger or cargo airplane and protects the cockpit of an aircraft from hijacking attempts as well as other anomalous events and is comprised of a light weight weapon-proof protective shield that when closed fits snugly with the flight deck's adjoining floor, walls, and ceiling. 2, record 2, English, - protective%20shield

Contrairement aux systèmes de composition spécialisés, les systèmes d’édition comportent généralement des postes de travail et font appel à des logiciels qui facilitent grandement la manipulation des copies(par exemple, les touches de fonction permettant de délimiter, de déplacer ou de supprimer des blocs de texte de tailles différentes). Un système d’édition comporte souvent un système de composition permettant de formater des documents en vue de leur composition au poste de travail. Lorsque le manuscrit peut être composé, il est envoyé électroniquement au système de composition. L'épreuve peut être produite à l'écran ou sur support papier. 3, record 3, French, - syst%C3%A8me%20d%26rsquo%3B%C3%A9dition

Another new technology quickly gaining acceptance is the "soft proof" (or "collaborative proof" or "remote proof"), in which your printer sends you a high-res [high-resolution] digital version of your actual plating and proofing files over the Internet. You check the proof on-screen and then return it on-line with annotated corrections. This is particularly efficient if the job requires approvals from many people. It also removes couriers and idle wait time from the workflow since it is an immediate, two-way transfer of the proof. 1, record 4, English, - soft%20proof
