Export to PDF is CRITICALLY needed

Export to PDF is CRITICALLY needed

I am just sick entire of how many times people asked me why Revit can't export views or sheets to pdf directly. Like any other decent software does. Like even Autocad does it. Why can't Revit automatically export views and sheets to dwg (vector processing) then automatically convert that to pdf? That should be the bare minimum, if no better alternative possible.

This has already been asked many times here....should search first.

 

FYI...yeah, Autocad does it, didn't use to.  Archicad does it, didn't use to, had to use Plotmaker and an external printer.

 

Funny thing is, Revit used to be able to export to PDF, but it was removed.

No worries. Some developer, some day, will create a Revit addin that shall do exactly that: export to pdf. Because Autodesk is too lazy to fix its' own code. Because there are so many Revit extensions i just lost count of it. Because people shall keep on asking for the simplest things they know to be as working solutions.

P.S. There is a huge rift between advanced countries and developing countries. Some are relying on next-gen digital documentation like VR and AR, yet some are still relying on dwgs, pdfs, and sometimes even paper. Pdfs (and paper) tend to be the cheapest solution on construction sites: afordable, expandable, easy to replicate. Sometimes a digital mess may be harder to manage than a paper mess.

Why don't you use PF Printer PDF?

It's doing what you need. Very easy. Select sheets and click print to PDF.

It support also custom paper sizes.
