Measuring for entrepreneurs

Post by caha-4 »

Hi

I'm an employee in a demolition company and I use all day to make tenders. I use PDF XChange Viewer to measure on drawings and uses a calculator for summing, but it feels like using a lot of time on the calculator if the viewer was able to make the summing for me.

Does anyone know if it's possible for users to enable a summing when measuring?

This depends on your desired use ...

You may be better to use the new PDF-XChange Editor as this also offers the ability to 'calibrate' and set the units of measure - you could then add say set 2 points on your drawing and given a measurement for those 2 points in your chosen units - then all subsequent measurements will be totalled and give you a value for the points chose (e.g. a perimeter or area of the points chosen etc)

More detail of what you want to do would allow for a more detailed answer.
