- With the MaxWebAuthor command Open Directory you can specify a “top level” directory (on your hard disk), and MaxView will create a document that reproduces the system directory structure with Folders and the image files inserted into the corresponding Folders as pages. Significant manpower savings are realized in creating documents with a single keystroke.
- Non-technical users find it is easiest to navigate a document using hotspots or hyper links. The Create Hotspot Menus function automatically creates forward and backward hotspot links between folders and sub-folders offering simple and intuitive navigation through document folders and pages.
- The Generate Previews capability produces thumbnail images less than 1/10 the size of the standard raster CALS or TIFF files which are automatically detected by MaxReader. For large size files such as engineering drawings, the ability to preview images on the web is extremely beneficial. The end-users experience quick on-line viewing, can bookmark specific images while previewing and then download only the required full resolution images. Considerable time is saved through use of previews, which the contractors can apply to the preview of more projects that would be of interest to them. The preview-first method is used in posting documents on AEPlans™, the on-line service for public or private project plan set distribution during the design or bid phase of construction.
In the construction marketplace, MaxView™ software applications are used by Federal Government Agencies, large Corporations, their A/E firms and a growing number of State Government Agencies, Plans Rooms and Reprographic firms in creating an end-to-end electronic plan set solution.
