There may be times when you’re required to work offline in Revu, such as when you work on remote job sites or in organizations with a secured network that limit access to Bluebeam Studio. This article outlines two workflows that enable you to work offline.
Linear review
With linear review, each reviewer takes a turn to review, add markups, and comment on a document before handing it off to the next reviewer.
- Reviewer A reviews the drawings and adds markups.
- Reviewer A notifies Reviewer B and sends them the revised PDF.
- Reviewer B reviews the drawings, adds markups, and replies to previous markups.
- Reviewer B notifies the next reviewer in line and sends them the revised PDF.
These steps continue until the review is complete.
Asynchronous review
With asynchronous review, each reviewer works on a copy of the primary PDF(s). Afterward, a document administrator transfers all markups to the primary PDF.
- The administrator distributes copies of the primary documents to all reviewers.
- All reviewers add their markups and submit their copies back to the administrator.
- The administrator exports the markups from all of the reviewers.
- The administrator imports the markups from each copy into the primary PDF.
The administrator distributes updated copies of the documents to all reviewers for further review.
