Bluebeam Tip: Enhance Productivity with Bluebeam Revu's Split Screen Feature for Simultaneous PDF Viewing

One of the powerful features of Bluebeam Revu is the ability to use Split Screen for simultaneous PDF viewing, enhancing productivity and ease of document comparison. This feature allows you to view multiple sections of a document at once or compare two different documents side by side without switching back and forth. Here's how you can maximize this feature:

  • Activate Split Screen: To begin, open the PDF document you wish to view. Navigate to the View menu and select Split Vertical or Split Horizontal based on your preference. This will divide your screen into two, allowing for different documents or separate pages of the same document to be displayed simultaneously.
  • Customize Your View: Adjust each split screen pane individually to focus on specific sections or different documents. You can zoom in on one side for detailed markup while keeping an overview on the other. This is particularly useful for reviewing design changes or ensuring consistency across documents.
  • Sync Scrolling: Enable synchronized scrolling if you are comparing similar documents or pages. This feature allows you to scroll through both documents in tandem, making it easier to spot differences or follow similar content across both views.
  • Easy Navigation: Use the Thumbnails panel to drag and drop pages across your split screens or quickly switch between different pages. This facilitates quick comparisons and ensures you can move efficiently through complex documents.

Implementing the Split Screen feature can significantly streamline your workflow, especially when dealing with large sets of documents. It is an essential tool for architects, engineers, and construction professionals who need to ensure accuracy and efficiency in their review processes.
