Brava's Value for SharePoint

Faster Access to Content
Brava can be easily added to search results pages, document list views, and even document properties windows, providing thumbnails or full-document previews. Users can quickly scan a document and perform additional in-document searches without leaving the SharePoint page.

Share Documents Securely
Brava obeys the SharePoint security model, allowing only authorized users to view, print, publish or comment on documents. Companies can share documents with users who have access to the SharePoint library, while preventing information from leaving the repository without authorization. To share documents outside the organization, publish documents to secure CSF (Content Sealed Format).

Advanced Stamping and Watermarks
Brava's stamp features allow users to add stock stamps to documents like APPROVED, DRAFT and CANCELLED, or to add custom stamps. Bi-directional stamps allow organizations to create custom stamps that can pull and/or push metadata from and to the SharePoint database.

Document Publishing
Brava offers the ability to publish any document, regardless of format, to TIFF, PDF, DWF or secure CSF. Information Workers can publish the document they are currently viewing, or Brava can publish on-demand as part of a workflow.

Brava Compare
Compare different versions of a document or drawing with Brava's built-in comparison tool—useful for comparing drawing and document revisions/versions and faxed versus signed contracts. Brava offers pixel-to-pixel and text comparison modes so users can choose the view best suited to their file type. Comparison views can also include annotations for easy change verifications, ensuring no changes are left unincorporated.

Intelligent Redaction Tools
Brava's redaction tools let users remove sensitive information from documents, drawings and images manually, by intelligent pattern matching, and by text search. Brava offers a draft mode to accommodate review cycles, the ability to redact pages and page ranges, and the ability to do partial redactions, useful for redacting all but the last four digits of a credit card or bank account number.

Working with CAD Files
Changemarks step reviewers through every comment, ensuring nothing is missed. This feature is particularly important for large drawings and multi-page files. With CAD files, vector data is not converted to pixels (rasterized), thus maintaining the integrity and fidelity of the drawing. Brava's compare feature allows users to easily view at-a-glance any modifications that have been made to a drawing.

A takeoff count allows users to count items on drawings such as doors and windows and aggregate the measured areas of flooring or other materials for purchasing decisions. Users can create separate profiles for each count using different colors, and then create a report in a spreadsheet format.
