What is PloView?

This HP document outlines PloView, a collection of products designed for converting and viewing a variety of graphic file types, including HP GL, HP-GL/2, and HP RTL, as well as detailing the various features of the PloView series. With PloView, users can easily access and manipulate drawings contained in HPGL/Vector/image files. The software incorporates robust editing capabilities similar to those found in 2D-CAD, facilitating the creation of new drawings and modifications to existing design layouts. The standard paper size serves as the basis for determining the dimensions of printed materials. Additionally, the software automatically identifies the paper orientation, selecting either Portrait or Landscape as needed. Users should avoid selecting unsupported paper sizes or orientations if their printer cannot accommodate them. In scenarios where the drawing size surpasses the paper dimensions, it is advisable to select the largest available paper size, allowing for automatic scaling adjustments to ensure compatibility with the drawing size. The flexibility and user-friendly design of PloView make it a valuable tool for graphic file management.

What is BidScreen XL?

BidScreen XL is a powerful add-in for Excel that enables users to perform takeoffs from electronic plans right within Microsoft Excel. This tool provides a comprehensive audit trail while automating the often laborious takeoff process, making it significantly more efficient. Users can easily take measurements, counts, and identify areas by simply clicking on a cell in their spreadsheet, directly referencing their digital drawings. The Excel workbook not only saves these measurements but also allows for color-coded takeoff drawings that can be edited and printed as needed. Furthermore, users have the flexibility to apply various colors, count symbols, and line styles to enhance their drawings. Included in the software are sample estimating templates tailored for general contractors, as well as specific trades like concrete, roofing, and painting. It supports DWG vector and PDF file formats, ensuring compatibility with various design sources. For precise measurements, users can snap layers to specific objects and isolate them for clarity. Additionally, with just one click, multiple takeoff files and pages can be opened simultaneously, streamlining the workflow even further. This makes BidScreen XL an invaluable tool for professionals looking to enhance their estimating accuracy and efficiency.
