Pasadena, California - Bluebeam Software, a leader in PDF solutions for architects and engineers, announced today that it has launched Bluebeam Lite, a complete PDF solution for firms that use AutoCAD LT, one of the most popular CAD applications on the marketplace today. Bluebeam Lite will allow users to create accurate PDF files directly from AutoCAD LT and Windows Office® applications.

"Since its inception, architecture and engineering firms have recognized Bluebeam Software for its superior paperless workflow solutions. The strong demand for Bluebeam's solutions for AutoCAD and SolidWorks users has prompted many AutoCAD LT users to request Bluebeam create an effective and affordable solution just for them," says Richard Lee, President and CEO of Bluebeam Software, Inc. Bluebeam Lite was created with specialized AutoCAD LT settings to generate extremely accurate PDF drawings.

When users install Bluebeam Lite, the software will add Bluebeam buttons to their AutoCAD LT and Windows Office applications, making PDF creation as easy as clicking a button. According to Lee, "Our users asked for easier PDF creation in Windows applications and Bluebeam responded by adding convenient buttons in Windows Office programs. These Windows Office buttons will be added to Pushbutton PDF, Bluebeam's full-featured product targeted to AutoCAD and SolidWorks users, next month." Bluebeam Lite will be available through Bluebeam Software's online web store for $89 per license from Cadopolis.com. Steep discounts for orders of ten or more licenses are available.
