There is a big problem with this, the designer often overlooks a lot of 
issues which are found with printing. 
- RGB images for a CMYK printer
- embedded vector images without the fonts it needs
- some images embedded in the document some not, this means that the printer
  will print with lowres (preview) images.

This should be looked at with care. I will discuss this with some collegues 
later. Some of them have a life-time experience with this kind of stuff.
