Has more powerful naming rules than the software software you mentioned. Does automatic paper size detection (PDF, Hard Copy, DWF/x) Includes a transmittal/document register tool. Includes a commercial license for a high quality PDF Printer (no extra cost) Both have been around over 7 years and are used by thousands of Revit users all of the world. The two most comprehensive are developed by Xrev and the other by RTV Tools. They've already been mentioned in this thread by others.

So for these advanced features that go further that the Revit Print dialog and simple plugins for PDF packages, I think Docuflow and similar are the way to go for demanding projects. That is configurable for each project, and easily reusable. We have also some projects for several Norwegian agencies, including aviation, education and hospitals that require very complex filenames for each sheet, and using the advanced filename we can combine sheet numbers, dates, revisions and Revit parameters into dynamically generated filenames. We have about 50 architects using it daily and we do not intend to go back to other software. Mind that a few plugins do not even handle multiple orientations or automatically creation of PDF paper sizes to match the Revit sheets. For presentations we merge all sheets in all sizes and orientations into a single PDF file - much faster than any other software we tested. We don not have any manual operation and we never need to touch the Revit Print dialog again - all comes perfect. So what Docuflow makes is allows us to quick select the latest revised sheets, and generate all the documents regardless of their size and orientation in a single operation. Typically in a medium size project we deliver drawings every day to the building site, so in the course of a project we issue drawings about 300-700 times. I suppose a PDF creator for Revit is not a PDF driver, it is a plugin that prints views and sheets into a PDF like the original in best quality and in the least amount of time, using the office / national standards.įrom our experience Docuflow that is on the Autodesk App Store is the software that suits our workflow here in Norway. Our process requires that we export the latest project revision into PDF and DWG, and the revised drawing list.
