Mobility

Simplifying the way you work.

Bluebeam PDF Revu makes it easy for mobile professionals to create, markup and edit PDFs on a Tablet PC in the field. Profile setups for the tablet user optimize the user interface for portrait mode with a default setup for landscape. A double-click to zoom feature replicates a mouse wheel while a built-in "Shift" key enables additional functionality. Our technology works with your tablet to provide twice the ink density (points) as anything else on the market, capturing everything written with the tablet pen at a higher resolution resulting in greater clarity. The back of the tablet pen has also been set for erasing, making PDF markup and PDF editing as easy as using, well, your pen. With Bluebeam, your mobile workforce can work onsite, connect to your server remotely and upload documents to the corporate server without delay.

Learn the Process

Using Revu on a tablet PC

Learn how to mark up and edit PDFs in Bluebeam with the ease of a tablet pen.

Pressure Sensitivity

With pressure sensitivity technology, Revu simulates the characteristics of writing with pen and paper. Thicker ink lines appear when pressing harder on the tablet screen and thinner ink lines appear with a light touch.

 

Interoperability

Copy and paste ink between Bluebeam PDF Revu and other tablet specific applications such as Journal™ and OneNote™.

 

Profiles

Bluebeam comes with several predefined profile settings to make it easy to switch your interface between different views. After installation, select the Tablet profile to display the interface in landscape mode for easier viewing, markup and editing. Customize the profile to suit your needs or create multiple profiles.

Product Reviews

ENR Cover Story

- Bluebeam for Punch

In this video created by McGraw Hill Construction, Zachry Construction project team members explain how they use Bluebeam's PDF markup tools, tablet PC compatibility and real-time collaboration feature, Bluebeam Studio™, to quickly punch floors and instantly create punchlists.

"There are a lot of things that Bluebeam has done that are specifically tailored to the Tablet PC user. From a built-in TIP, to searching ink in the PDF, to a high quality zooming and panning function. The best one, in my opinion, the ability to store ink components in a tool set and re-use them later in other PDF documents. For people who mark up a lot of documents or use specialized editing symbols, that is a killer function."
