"Acrobat®
and PDF for Architecture, Engineering, and Construction" is a practical guide focusing on the applications of PDF in the solution of "engineering" problems which may arise in various disciplines from architecture to construction. Using real-world examples, the authors follow a project from design through build and long-term maintenance.
Readers can take full advantage of the power of PDF in an engineering environment by employing: review tracking; geo-referenced drawings; common format CAD and configuration management; reduced review and approval time with better document control; and project management advice. Chapter summaries, example and sample projects followed throughout the book demonstrating the use of the various PDF capabilities introduced and end-of-chapter exercises facilitate self-teaching.
For professionals of all walks of life from electrical, civil and mechanical engineers to architects and construction managers with levels of expertise ranging from the intermediate to advanced.

Riassunto
This handbook teaches the use of PDF in communication and archiving of complex documents, with a specific slant towards engineering disciplines and related areas of architecture and construction management. The text demonstrates how better document control reduces project review and approval times, and smoothes interaction with clients and regulatory agencies by employing a completely searchable document format which is available to all. The author explains and illustrates the application of Acrobat techniques by following the progress of a sample project throughout the book, and end-of-chapter exercises promote self-instruction.
