Mobility

Go mobile with Bluebeam® Revu®.

Create, edit, and markup PDFs on the go or in the field by using Bluebeam Revu on a tablet PC. Revu's pre-loaded tablet profile includes optimized features for transitioning from a desktop-based workflow to a mobile one. Maximize screen real estate while maintaining quick access to popular markup tools and robust features, including Tool Chest™, VisualSearch™, and Bluebeam Studio™. Pressure sensitivity technology enables tablet pens to simulate actual pen and paper writing, capturing everything written at a higher resolution for greater clarity. The back of the tablet pen even functions as an eraser, making PDF markup and editing as easy as using...well, your pen. The double-click to zoom feature replicates an actual mouse wheel, while using the built-in Shift key activates even more functionality. Bluebeam has pulled out all the stops for taking projects mobile.

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 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.

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."
