PDF Scout™
PDF Inspector for
Electronic Plan Review
Benefits that save time
PDF Scout™ saves time in checking your PDF files! It identifies known issues in PDF files immediately upon upload to goPost™ our Customer Self-Service Portal and e-PlanREVIEW®. If there is a problem with the PDF, the file will not be accepted.
How PDF SCOUT Works
Any public facing portal, such as a permit portal, can integrate with PDF Scout™
During the application intake process, PDFs uploaded for plan review are analyzed online via our PDF Scout™ inspector
PDF Scout™ has configurable criteria
Issues requiring user attention are identified by PDF Scout™ and communicated to the applicant so they can be addressed before submission
Documents that do not pass PDF Scout™ inspection will not proceed for plan review
Great User Reviews and Comments
Zero cost is always great!
Historically no PDF option would compare with Adobe Acrobat, but it comes at a cost. This is a great tool to inspect plan set PDF’s that isn’t just free but can be integrated right into your systems for seamless workflows.

Love this product by e-PlanSoft™

Great document submittal experience
PDF Scout™ removes annotations by “Flattening” the PDF so EPR will accept it and it does it in one smooth process.

Does the work flawlessly
Hands down the best idea. All customer portals should implement calls to Scout to evaluate whether plan review documents are acceptable, so the customer can resolve the issues prior to the documents being uploaded to the city.
