Bluebeam PDF Revu CAD

Smart. Efficient. Powerful.

Bluebeam PDF Revu CAD improves communication, productivity and collaboration on projects by enabling digital processes from design, through bid and build. The professional PDF solution for CAD users, Revu CAD provides powerful PDF creation, markup and editing features for a paperless workflow.

Use Bluebeam's plugins for AutoCAD®, Revit®, SolidWorks® and MS Office for one-button PDF creation and batch options, or use the Bluebeam PDF printer to convert other CAD and Windows files to 10 different file formats. Bluebeam automatically reads your drawing's orientation, scale, line weights, merged lines, plot style table, and page size, so there is no need to adjust your settings. View 3D models in PDFs and digitally redline PDF drawings with industry standard markups including text, clouds, highlights, CAD symbols, stamps, images and measurements. Save custom markups in the patented Tool Chest™ for easy reuse, and use Bluebeam's editing capabilities to assemble PDFs of RFIs, submittals, bid sets and more. Perform cost calculations, automatically compare drawings, track markups in a list, integrate with SharePoint® or ProjectWise®, go mobile on a tablet PC and collaborate in real time with Bluebeam Studio™.
