What's new in 8.5
Bluebeam Studio™
Bluebeam Studio allows users to collaborate online with team members from anywhere at any time. Session hosts can start a session, upload PDF files and invite anyone to join. Markups are added to the same PDF in real time or at any time the session is active, and a built in chat makes communication simple. All markups and chat activity are tracked in a Record that links back to the document and displays the same view of the PDF as when the markups were made. Once a session is complete, the files can be saved and a report can be generated for archiving purposes.
Presentation mode
Allows PDF pages to be displayed on screen as a presentation. Presentation options include looping, auto advance pages, custom background colors and transition effects.
Full Screen mode
The Revu interface can be changed to Full Screen mode, removing all panels, menus and toolbars from the interface for maximum PDF viewing. Full screen mode displays a customizable floating toolbar that can be used to add markups while in this mode.
What's new in 8
File Access
The File Access tab tracks recently opened PDF files in a list, displays a preview, and reopens the file with a mouse click. Pin and organize commonly used files by folder, sort by date or file name or group by category. Search local or remote files from the Revu interface and reopen all files from a previous session with one button.
SharePoint & ProjectWise integration
Direct integration with SharePoint & ProjectWise makes it simple to access files in a shared library. Open files, add markups and edits, then check them back in without leaving the Revu interface. Each user can control the level of integration that best fits their workflow.
Revit plug-in
Revu 8 integrates with Revit 2010 for one-button PDF creation from Revit. Select sheets to include in the PDF and reorder the sheets before creating the PDF.
Customizable toolbars
Control which toolbar icons are displayed within Revu’s interface, or create a custom toolbar that includes any combination of icons you prefer.
Custom Columns in Markups list
Create custom columns in the Markups list that include formulas for calculations, drop down menus, check boxes, dates, or text.
Overlay Pages
Visually compare two different PDF drawings by converting each drawing to a different colored layer and then overlaying the drawings so you can easily view the differences.
Markup actions
Add hyperlink properties to markups. Revu 8 allows you to add an action to a markup that links to a page, a zoomed area of the PDF, hyperlinks to a website or opens a file.
Markup sequencing
Markups that include a text box with a number or letter can be set to automatically increment in value when added to the PDF.
Color Processing
Change colors in the PDF content by selecting an original color and changing it to a new color. Color processing also changes colored PDFs to monochrome or grayscale.
Internet Explorer plug-in (beta)
