How to export, import, and manage Profiles

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 Revu account.

Exporting a profile

To export a profile, perform the following steps:

1. Go to Revu > Profiles > Manage Profiles , or select the Profiles icon in the Navigation Bar.
   
   If you don't see the Navigation bar, go to Tools > Toolbars > Navigation Bar (F4) to show the toolbar in your workspace. If the Profiles icon isn't visible in the Navigation Bar, you'll need to access the Customize Toolbars tool.
2. Choose the profile that you'd like to share, then select 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 (Revu eXtreme or Revu 21 with a Complete plan 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. Select OK.

Importing a profile

To import a profile to Revu, perform the following steps:

1. Go to Revu > Profiles > Manage Profiles , or select the Profiles icon in the Navigation Bar.
2. Select Import 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. Select OK.

Manage your profiles

You can create a new profile, which you can then customize. You can also rename or delete existing profiles.
