Using Revu for working with typical Office documents:
When using Revu for general office applications, a standard, general class computer may be used. A system qualified to run Windows XP, Vista or Windows 7 would be a typical recommended configuration. For systems running Windows XP, a minimum of 1 GB of RAM or more is generally recommended. For systems using 32-bit Windows 7 or Vista, a bare minimum of 2GB is recommended. For running 64-bit Windows 7 or Vista, a minimum or 4GB is recommended.
Using Revu for working with large sets of engineering documents:
When working with large drawing sets (for example, construction project bid sets) in which the PDFs may contain many hundreds of large format drawings, it is recommended that workstations have adequate memory and processor resources. A recommended hardware configuration would be an Intel Core 2 Duo 2.6 GHz or better processor and 4 GB RAM. Revu can run on systems with lower specifications, however a workstation with these settings will provide the optimal performance. |
