Bluebeam Releases Revu 7.0 for PDF Creation, Editing
CAD Edition has 1 button PDF creation from within AutoCAD, SolidWorks
 PASADENA, CA,
Mar 24, 2009 - Bluebeam Software, a leader in innovative PDF solutions,
announced today the release of Bluebeam PDF Revu 7.0, the latest version of
Bluebeam’s professional and affordable PDF solution. Bluebeam continues its
quest to improve PDF creation, markup and editing and reduce excessive paper
consumption in the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry
and business community at large.
Flexible Options for PDF Creation
Bluebeam simplified PDF creation with plug-ins for Microsoft Office, AutoCAD
and SolidWorks applications and its PDF printer to convert to PDF from any
Windows file. Revu 7.0 takes PDF creation further with Batch for Office, Scan to
PDF, and native image conversion. Batch for Office allows users to quickly
create PDFs from Word, Excel and PowerPoint files in just a few clicks while
Scan to PDF and native image conversion eliminate unnecessary steps when
converting various images.
Faster Document Review
In addition, Bluebeam added spell check and PDF flags to make it easier to
review PDF documents. Spell check identifies and suggests changes for misspelled
words found in markups, form fields and PDF content. Further, dictionaries can
be imported to use with spell check for languages other than English. Bluebeam’s
exclusive PDF flag serves as a virtual sticky flag, placing visual markers on
PDFs to designate signature lines or other important content.
More Markup Tools for AEC
Bluebeam continues to focus on the AEC industry with the development of hatch
patterns, arcs and curve markups, and improved stamp options. Users can select
from a list of hatch patterns included in Revu to fill in markups or takeoffs,
create and save custom hatches, and import AutoCAD .pat files into Revu. Plus,
AEC professionals can now redline PDF drawings with the arc tool and create
custom text stamps with the revised stamp editor. The measurement tool also
incorporates curves technology for more accurate area, perimeter and volume
calculations.
Better PDF Distribution
Finally, Bluebeam PDF Revu 7.0 provides new file sharing options to
significantly reduce the need to print and ship documents. The Reduce File Size
feature gives users more control over PDF compression by estimating the new file
size and including an interface to adjust settings such as PDF version, image
resolution and embedded fonts. Additionally, Bluebeam now supports PDF packages
for organizing multiple files and file types into a single package for archiving
or delivering documents to clients. Quick Security uses security profiles to
secure sensitive documents with one click while a new batch security feature
allows users to apply security to multiple PDFs simultaneously.
“In order to be more competitive, business leaders require solutions that
make their firms more efficient and sustainable,” said Richard Lee, President
and CEO of Bluebeam Software. “Each new feature in 7.0 is designed to do just
that - enable our customers to achieve real results - reduce printing and
shipping costs by up to 80% and increase productivity by up to 60%.”
