    <description>&lt;P&gt;Coming from ArchiCAD I must say, that the whole process of "getting things out of Revit" &lt;U&gt;in my opinion&lt;/U&gt;&amp;nbsp; is just ridiculous! Slow, cumbersome, inefficient! (sorry if it sounds rude)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If I could whish (and experience tells, that I cant) please&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- make one interface (publisher) for exporting files, no matter if it is dwg, ifc, PDF or a Print.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Give us the ability to set naming rules for exportet files (i.e. dates, indices, custom suffixes, prefixes or whatever)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- Give us the ability to publish all file types at once!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- connect the Publisher to a also &lt;U&gt;reworked Revision Manager,&lt;/U&gt; so every Layout with a new Revisions is recognized and could be published with one click!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;- etc. (just look at the publisher in ArchiCAD)&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I understand your frustration. Because Revit doesn't do this a whole ecosystem of apps have stepped in to provide exactly what you describe. We use RTV Xporter, which is brilliant and is only 10 dollars.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;In my opinion, one goal of Revit is moving the whole industry to BIM-related collaboration. Making PDFs exporting easier doesn't tie in with this version of events. Similarly, if moving from Revit to CAD is extremely easy, people will remain using CAD for longer.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Exporting a Revit model in RVT format is very easy! This is probably on purpose.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

But that is not the point.&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;A proper BIM Workflow is one thing, (and I am the BIM Manager in our office, so I naturally support this workflow) but at the end of the day, you still have to make dokumentation drawings out of your beautiful bim model, which you have to publish of couse. You still want to archive your drawings as pdf files, so your work is properly documented and you still want to print large amount of drawings for your firms at the constuction site..... and you want &lt;U&gt;and need&lt;/U&gt; to comunicate with people outside the Autodesk world (which seems to be rather flat to me)&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#000000"&gt;The file format is not my concern, no matter if its ifc, pdf, dwg, a print or whatever, it is all about &lt;U&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;how&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/U&gt; revit does it...And it does a really bad job in communication with the outside world (even with AutoCAD btw,&amp;nbsp; which is really a joke). &lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;FONT color="#808080"&gt;&lt;EM&gt;"I understand your frustration.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I understand what you’re saying and agree with it. My concern is that Revit will never be updated to accommodate this issue.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Integration between Revit and Autocad is a major sticking point. Again, if it worked seamlessly, firms would probably operate on a 50% Revit / 50% Autocad basis for years. By making it more difficult, we are forced to search for implementing all our previous workflows through Revit.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;One thing we have looked at is using DWFx files for archiving – you can export all your views and sheets from Revit into a single file without much work. A quick benefit over PDFs is that they are easily measureable.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
