Redline Documents

Using the built-in redlining feature, you can redline documents. You can then save the redline markups to your local machine as a PDF file. This is the only way to save redlined files and make them available outside of e-Builder. This also allows you to make marked up files available to team members who do not have permission to view redlined documents.

To redline documents

  1. Go to the Project Documents page.
  2. Navigate to the file you want to redline.
  3. Click the Redline link located below the name of the file you wish to redline.
  4. The file opens up in a separate redlining window.

  5. Click the Markup icon Marckup Icon located in the upper left corner of the window.
  6. Click New Markup.
  7. From the Annotations drop down, select the type of markup you wish to make.
  8. Once the document has been marked up, do any of the following:
    • To save the file, click the Markup icon > Save Markup. Enter a unique name and then click OK.
    • To save the file as a PDF, click the More icon More icon > Publish to PDF.
    • To print the file, click the More icon More icon > Print.

    You may need to maximize the redlining window to see the More icon.
    Locating the More icon

    Click the Help icon located on the upper right corner of the window. A new window displays the in-app help that describes all the options available on the redline window. Depending on your browser settings, your redline window may be ‘hidden’ behind the help window.
