Authoring applications

The following table lists the document authoring application versions that are supported by specific application links in this release of BlueCielo Meridian Enterprise. For the supported AutoCAD family versions, see AutoCAD family applications.

Most applications in this list have specialized application links or add-ins that provide functionality similar to the following:

• Automatic external reference management and resolution.
• For CAD applications, file property and title block data exchange with the Meridian Enterprise database, Meridian Enterprise property editing, and redlines import from within the CAD application.
• For non-CAD applications, file property exchange with the Meridian Enterprise database from within the Meridian Enterprise desktop clients.
• File Open/Save/Save As dialog integration for applications that use standard Windows file dialogs. Not all applications that use customized dialogs are supported.
• Automatic management of hybrid documents, where applicable.
• Viewing of the application’s file formats in Meridian Enterprise is provided by the viewer described in Oracle AutoVue 2D Professional.
• Support for both 32-bit and 64-bit versions

Applications are tested extensively with each release of Meridian Enterprise. Typically, BlueCielo supports the latest three major versions of applications. BlueCielo makes a commercially reasonable effort to support new versions of the most popular applications, within 60 days of the version’s release to market and other applications within 90 days.

1. Obsolete combination. This may work, but is unsupported. If problems do occur, an upgrade of the application to a supported release or service pack, or converting the document to a supported file version may be required in order to receive support from BlueCielo.
