After exporting a film list, you should compare the edge code (key numbers or ink
numbers) in the film list to the edge code in the window burn at the In point frame of
each edit. Although it can be time-consuming to go through all of the edits and
compare the edge code numbers, it prevents the loss of time and money caused by
incorrect cuts. It’s particularly important to check the edge code numbers if you are not
conforming a workprint before cutting your negative.
