sPrint 🏃‍♂️

Printing PDF's from Autodesk Cloud (BIM360/ACC) used to be a time consuming task. Going through all drawings and requesting .PDF's took a while and BIM managers need to quality assurance large drawing sets. sPrint is a Chrome extension that allows batch-print PDFs and download things (derivatives) from Autodesk Cloud Platforms.
