Archicad and the design review process

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi There,

I am looking for a way to get a better review Process for 2D plans and designs. I want the possibility to open a 2D Drawing to mark and annotate parts of the drawing on a bigger touch screen monitor. (Just like printing out the plan and using a text marker)

I looked into using Autocad Design Review but I have 2 Problems regarding Layers:
1) Archicad does not export to PDF with swichable layers
2) Design Review cannot swich layers with an exported dxf file

We need to filter out layers in our process. And we use Archicad for planning. Is there Software that would work?
The tighter this is integrated with ArchiCad, the better!

Have you looked into the Mark Up tool within Archicad itself for you plan/model reviews?

Archicad 18 does save PDF files with layers.
