Marqup, measure
and compare
your plan sets.

Edit linework the way you draft it.

Select a polyline, polygon or cloud and a blue grip sits on every vertex, with a bar on the middle of every segment. Drag a vertex to move it, drag a middle bar to add a vertex there, or right-click to delete one. Any segment can become a true arc: drag its middle grip to set the bow, as with a CAD polyline arc.

While you draw or measure, the pointer snaps to the endpoints, midpoints, intersections, perpendiculars and nearest points of the sheet's own linework, with the CAD snap marker so you know which. F3 turns snap on and off; each snap mode can be turned off on its own from the Snap button.

Notes that read like the sheet.

Rotate any text box or typewriter note: drag just outside a corner (15° steps, 1° with Shift), type an angle, or choose Align to a Line on the Sheet and click the street or property line it should follow.

Text options cover what a drafter expects: Helvetica, Times or Courier in any weight, underline and strikethrough, character spacing, baseline shift, all caps or title case, outline, a background color behind the words, justified text, line and paragraph spacing, and bulleted, dashed, numbered or lettered lists.

Groups, Align, Distribute, Select Similar.

Select several markups and one box surrounds them all: drag a corner to resize them together, or a side to stretch them one way. Align lines up left edges, centers, right edges, tops, middles or bottoms; Distribute spaces three or more evenly.

Group them (⌃⌘G) and a click on any one selects the lot. Select Similar (⇧⌘A) picks every markup of the same type and color on the sheet or on every sheet, so one change in Properties restyles them all.

Stamp it and move on.

Pick a stamp from the Stamps button and click to place it at its own size, or drag to size it. Import Stamp turns any PDF or picture into a stamp, so the approval and review stamps you already use come along. Point the stamp folder at a shared drive and the whole office stamps alike. Marqup starts you off with fourteen common stamps, and New Stamp from Image trims a scanned stamp or signature to its ink.

Stamps are saved as standard PDF stamps, keep their own artwork, and are drawn into the sheet when you flatten.

Exhibits in minutes, not an afternoon.

New Exhibit starts a Letter, 11 × 17 or 24 × 36 sheet with a title block: a right-side strip, a bottom strip, a corner box or an exhibit banner. Place Drawing brings in any plan, cropped to the drawing and leaving its old title block out. The line work stays sharp, the hidden part can be cropped back in, and Marqup fits it at a standard scale and sets the sheet's scale to match.

The title block stays together as one piece, so the frame never slips. Double-click any words to change them, or fill the project, address, client and date once in Exhibit Info for every sheet. The scale and sheet numbers fill themselves, and the graphic scale redraws whenever the scale changes. Add your logo and stamps, then save the block as your own template.

Areas in a few clicks.

Dynamic Fill measures any closed outline already on the sheet: click inside a planter or a building pad and Marqup traces it from the linework and measures it exactly. Give an area a depth and Volume reads in cubic feet and cubic yards.

Angle takes three clicks; Radius and Arc Length take three points on a curve, so a curb return or a cul-de-sac reads straight from the drawing.

Count it, total it, show it.

Count places a mark on each item, such as inlets, trees, cleanouts or traffic channelizers, and keeps the tally. Drag a Legend onto the sheet: it lists every kind of markup with its swatch, count and total, keeps itself current as you work, and names Highlight+ colors by their meaning.

Nobody needs Marqup to work with you.

Marqup saves standard PDF markups, so a consultant, an agency reviewer or an owner can open your comments in the PDF app they already use, reply and send the file back. Their markups come in with their names, colors, status and replies, sorted by company in the Markups List.

Send a set by Mail, Messages or AirDrop from the Share button. Pick it up on iPad or iPhone for the site walk; punch items and photos from the field come back as markups in the same list, ready to assign and close.

Highlights that mean something.

Hold the highlighter button for Highlight+: Done in yellow, Other Party in pink, Verified in green, Question in blue. Over sheet text the highlighter snaps to the words. Rename, recolor or add categories to match how your office reviews, and a Legend explains them on the sheet.

The whole review in one list.

The Markups List shows every markup on the set with its sheet, type, author, company, department, status, date and value. Sort by any column, filter by sheet, author, status or type, select rows to change them together, and click a row to go to the markup.

Export the list as CSV for a spreadsheet, or as a Markups Summary PDF with totals by type, ready to attach to a response letter.

Search old scans like new sets.

Recognize Text reads scanned sheets, on the Mac and offline, and lays invisible words over the drawing. Find (⌘F) then searches the sheet text and the markup text across the set, lists every match by sheet, and zooms to each one, highlighted.

Sheet labels from the title block, Batch Link and Find all work on recognized sheets too.

CAD layers, on and off.

The Layers window lists the CAD layers in the PDF by name. Turn irrigation, topography or annotation off and it disappears from every sheet; the choice is saved in the file, so the next reviewer sees the same view.
