The Docudesk team is happy to announce the immediate availability of the first Beta release for PDFVue.com. This release marks Docudesk’s first initiative in delivering an online application to help users view, edit and share PDFs. In the following weeks, PDFVue developers will be adding features and fixing issues you submit at a rapid pace, so please test out PDFVue and give us your feature requests and bugs.

The PDFVue Beta allows you to read, comment, annotate, and share PDFs as well as create PDF forms. These features alone provide users with a great alternative to buying expensive client software. Forms creation is another highly sought after feature available in PDFVue. Everything that is needed for adding form fields to PDFs is included in PDFVue. By selecting the forms tab, users are presented with the various input elements required for creating customized PDF Forms. During the Beta period while we tune the network and applications performance PDFVue will be available for free with no usage limatations.

Also available as a complement to the PDFVue Beta, is deskPDF Professional with Beta PDFVue OnRamp. PDFVue Onramp provides a simple way to automatically upload documents of any type onto PDFVue. AutoCAD, Photoshop, Word, Excel or documents from any ”printable” application can be uploaded to PDFVue with PDFVue OnRamp. PDFVue OnRamp also includes built-in scanning for bringing scanned documents directly online for sharing, adding form fields, or comments.

The feedback from your unique applications and requirements are what will make PDFVue the best online PDF application. We welcome any and all feedback, ideas, and feature requests.
