How to Effortlessly Export Schedules to PDF
Greetings, architectural trailblazers and engineering maestros! As you know, we're here each week providing you with the most efficient tools to supercharge your workflow. Today, we're delving into an indispensable feature of our application, "Reports," and trust us, this is going to make your Autodesk Revit journey smoother than ever: exporting schedules to PDF!
In our digitally evolving world, PDF holds a solid ground, especially in the building industry. It's like the trusty hammer in your toolbox - reliable and relevant. And who are we to mess with perfection? Instead, let's make it even more efficient with Reports.
While Autodesk Revit does not natively export schedules to PDF, leading to a multi-step and manual splitting of schedules across sheets, Reports steps up to save the day. With nearly a one-click operation, you can publish multi-page documents with pre-set page sizes and automatic page numbering.
The real icing on the cake? All your settings, from page size to fonts, even your logo, are saved and can be shared among all project users. This makes re-exporting the Revit schedules faster than ever. Let's jump into the action!
