AutoVue 2D Professional markups are created as separate files which are linked to the associated documents and saved as distinct layers on top of the original file. Markup files can be stored on a local drive, network drive, a Document Management, Product Lifecycle Management or Enterprise Resource Planning system, or a Web server (or other remotely accessed server), making them available to other connected users. This is an invaluable asset, greatly facilitating communication and collaboration between team members. Through markups and annotations, users can capture design feedback, change requests, and Engineering Change Orders (ECOs).
