Advanced Functionality

• BlueÅngel may be operated as a standalone PDF viewer, or, as an Integrated Browser Plug-in viewer (just like Acrobat Reader).  Both forms of the program are included with every copy of BlueÅngel that is purchased and installed.

• Standard features include thumbnail and bookmark navigation, printing, advanced paging, zooming, panning, scrolling, image rotation, gray-scaling, 16m color display, email linking, popup short-cuts, full text search and notes.

• Intuitive menus and toolbars make BlueÅngel far easier to use than the overly complicated nested menus and dialogs found in PDF viewers such as Acrobat Reader.  

• BlueÅngel has been code optimized for online application sharing when used with the Collaboration PowerPak.  With this capability two or more people can simultaneous review the same PDF document online.

• Advanced ActiveX design provides an open architecture which is easy to customize. This means that web designers with VB or C++ programming skills can easily integrate BlueÅngel functionality into their own applications.  (Documentation for the API along with source code samples are included with the purchase of every Site License.)

• Coming Soon!  Advanced markup facility which includes support for CAD-like entities such as lines, splines, arcs, circles, ellipses, leaders, highlight, text and symbols.  (This feature will be offered as a Free upgrade to all customers participating in the Annual Maintenance Plan.)

• Coming Soon!  Full integration with Cadman's PDFware Plug-ins which provide advanced features such as tiled printing, bird's eye viewing, distance/area measurements, and file ID. (These plug-in features will be offered as a Free upgrade to all customers participating in the Annual Maintenance Plan.)
