Creating PDFs in Revu
Scan to PDF allows you to create PDFs directly from scanners and digital camera images.
The internal image converter allows you to open jpeg, bmp, tiff and other image files. Revu automatically converts the
image file to PDF in order to display in Revu. The image converter can also convert PDF to 10 image formats with a simple
Save As command.
Packages are a great way to organize multiple files for delivery. Any number of files, file types and file folders can be
wrapped in the PDF package and saved as a single file. Contents are displayed in a list that can be sorted and navigated
by the recipient.

Button Functionality
The Create PDF button allows you to easily create a PDF file from your open, active document or drawing (AutoCAD, Revit, Word, etc.). After clicking the button, a
Save As window appears, allowing you to name and save the file. You can turn off the prompt for file name and Bluebeam will automatically name the PDF file
with the same file name as the original.
The Change Settings button allows you to adjust the settings used to create the PDF for a customized output. In AutoCAD, Revit, SolidWorks and Office you can select
layouts/pages, page size and color, create PDF bookmarks, apply security settings and more. In AutoCAD LT, the Change Settings button launches
the Plot settings window to change scale, plot area, paper size, etc.
The Bluebeam Batch button appears in the toolbars of MS Office and in AutoCAD and SolidWorks when installing CAD Edition. Clicking this button begins the 3-step batch wizard and
converts any number of files to PDF, TIFF, GIF and any of the 11 formats Bluebeam supports.
The Share PDF button allows you to convert an AutoCAD, SolidWorks or Office file to PDF and share it via email or FTP in one step. Options include saving email
templates, email distribution lists and countless FTP connections.
