{{Short description|Video editing post-production process}}{{Confuse|Wikipedia:AUTOCONFIRM}}

'''Autoconform''' is the [video editing](/source/video_editing) and [post-production](/source/post-production) process where an [online editing](/source/online_editing) system combines a [timecode](/source/timecode) based [edit decision list](/source/edit_decision_list) (EDL) created from an [offline editing](/source/offline_editing) system with the original video and audio source material to produce a version of the edited video which is a high quality (usually [broadcast quality](/source/broadcast_quality)) analogue of the programme produced in the offline editing system.<ref>{{citation |title=Overview Of Auto Conform - Akai DD1500 User Manual }}</ref>

This process can be compared with word processing, where the edits required to make a document are made on a PC, and draft copies are printed out on a low-quality printer. When the creative process has been completed, the final version can be sent to a professional printer, who can reproduce the document at full quality.
