Default Proofs

Getting back to Leon's original question...

To me, a proof is a pre-production printing that the printer uses as a test. The printer is checking the lining up of the plates and colors. Proofs would never have been intended for distribution to the public. They would be shown to the designer for one last look, prior to production.

Miscut cards, missing colors or bad registration errors are usually not proofs. Anybody else have thoughts to help define?
