Bluebeam PDF Revu ®
PDF Editor, Viewer and Markup Tool for Tablet PC Users

Bluebeam PDF Revu is the complete PDF creation, viewing, markup, and editing tool for Tablet PC users. First introduced with the 4.5 release, Bluebeam has since included features specifically designed for Tablet OS users who are looking for a quick and easy way to review and annotate PDF files with the ease of their Tablet pen.

Bluebeam PDF Revu 5.5 took the Tablet PC experience further by adding a horizontal scroll bar for better navigation, an option to startup Revu with a blank page, and a toolbar button to insert a new page with one tap of the pen.

Now, with version 6.2, Tablet users can copy and paste between Revu and Windows tablet applications (Journal™ and OneNote™). New pressure sensitivity technology simulates paper and ink to apply thick or thin ink marks based on the pressure you exert on the screen. The pen is truly mightier than the keyboard.

Features

Markup
Markup tools are located to the right of the main desktop workspace for quick access. The high-resolution Pen and Highlight tools make it easy to comment on a document with freehand text or diagrams. Use the top of the Pen as an eraser and delete any unwanted Pen marks. Lines, clouds, and images are within a few clicks.



Navigation
Bluebeam uses tabbed navigation, making it easy to open and review multiple PDF files simultaneously. Double tap on the workspace and a zoom control will appear. Simply slide your pen up/down to zoom in/out.



Lasso
Selects and draws a region with the stylus to select all annotations within the region for group operations.



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.


Edit Pages
Feel free to change the size, layout and overall look and feel of your PDF with Bluebeam Revu. PDF editing options include the ability to add blank pages, insert, extract and rotate pages as well as copy and paste true text from your PDF into Word and other MS Office files.




Insert Page
Through the thumbnail navigation or Document menu, click Insert Blank Page and a page will be added to your document - have the benefit of more work space for your comments or illustrations directly from Revu. Select a 1/4" or 1/8" grid pattern, or a line pattern on the page to add more detail or to set a scale.


Reuse
Enables the same annotation to be added to the PDF without reselecting it from the toolbar. This mode is helpful when adding the same annotation on the PDF sequentially.

Free Text
The Free Text markup tool makes use of a TIP (tablet input panel) with text recognition when adding a Free Text, Callout, or Leader Line annotation. Write on the upper half of the input panel and the text will appear in the lower half. Use the caps lock and all your text will appear in upper case. A delete, backspace, return, and space button are included to make editing a breeze. An additional benefit with these types of annotations is that they are all text searchable.



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.



Appearance, Style, Font
Use various toolbars to quickly and easily change the appearance of your annotations. For instance, changing borders, line type, color, fill, opacity, font, or alignment are all accessible and obvious.





Tool Chest
Store ink components in a tool set to reuse later. The Tool Chest records and tracks markup tools as you use them. For example, by selecting a Text tool and placing a text annotation on the active document, an icon representing the text annotation will appear in Recent Tools. Duplicate the annotation by selecting this icon and place it anywhere in the document.



Rotate
All annotations placed in a PDF may be rotated by any angle using the control point or properties panel. Rotate by pressing the left mouse button to select the orange colored control point. As the mouse pointer moves, the rotation angle will displayed. The rotation is set to increment by 15 degrees; hold the Shift key to rotate one degree at a time.
