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.

 

Exporting a Revit model in RVT format is very easy! This is probably on purpose.

 

Don´t get me wrong. But that is not the point.

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 and need to comunicate with people outside the Autodesk world (which seems to be rather flat to me)

 

The file format is not my concern, no matter if its ifc, pdf, dwg, a print or whatever, it is all about how revit does it...And it does a really bad job in communication with the outside world (even with AutoCAD btw,  which is really a joke).

 

"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."

 

Thank you, at the moment I use XRevTransmit, it is very good, but about 50 dollars I think....and I really hat annual payments for things that revit should provide.....
