Bluebeam Releases Bluebeam PDF Revu 6.0

By DE Editors

Bluebeam Software Inc. (Pasadena, CA) released Bluebeam PDF Revu 6.0, a major upgrade to its desktop application that simplifies PDF creation, viewing, markup, and editing, with a redesigned interface, enhanced markup and editing tools, and exclusive new online search technology.

Bluebeam's WebTab, an integrated web browser that gives direct access to the Internet within Revu, lets customers search online for PDF brochures, online PDF catalogs, and other documents and view them in Revu, then use that content with markup and editing capabilities. Web pages and PDF documents are viewed in tabs side by side to combine PDF document viewing and online search in one application.

Bluebeam PDF Revu 6.0 also adds digital signatures to its professional PDF editor, giving more support for paperless offices. With digital signatures, users can designate digital signature fields, create signature styles, sign PDF documents, and validate signatures in PDF documents.

For customers in architecture, engineering and construction (AEC), Bluebeam has revamped its measurement tool making electronic takeoffs in PDF faster than before. New measurement options include calculating volume measurements, counting items on a PDF, embedding the scale in a PDF, setting multiple scales on a single PDF drawing, and snapping measurement lines to content in the PDF for the most accurate measurement.
