Profiles provide an easy way to store your favorite toolbars, menus and other display settings within Revu. Like tool sets, you can export your custom profiles and then add or import them to another user's copy of Revu.

In addition to profiles, you can customize tool sets and stamps within Revu to best suit your needs.

Exporting a profile

To export a profile:

  1. Go to Revu > Profiles > Manage Profiles , or click Profiles in the lower right corner of the Navigation Bar.
  2. Select the profile that you'd like to share, then click Export. The profile will be saved as a .bpx file that can be emailed or uploaded to a shared network drive or any other file sharing system.
  3. If you check the box marked Include Dependencies before exporting, then Revu will include tool sets, Bookmark Structures (eXtreme only), hatch patterns and line styles in the exported Profile. Upon importing the profile back to Revu, these dependencies will be included as well.
  4. Click OK.

Importing a profile

To import a profile to Revu:

  1. Go to Revu > Profiles > Manage Profiles , or click Profiles in the lower right corner of the Navigation Bar.
  2. Click the Import button to copy the .bpx file to the file path found in the Location: field. You can go to this designated folder to remove or copy profiles as needed.
  3. Click OK.
