Millwork shop drawing review and casework details.

Millwork PDF markup can locate a reveal, panel joint, hardware query or interface with an adjacent finish. Casework drawing review also benefits from matching the right revision and checking its scale. Layr keeps those comments, reference measurements and drawing comparisons close to the detail.

Before you start

A few practical details.

Can I review architectural millwork submittals in Layr?

Yes, when the drawings are supplied as PDFs. Mark up the set and organize review comments, then continue issuing and approving documents through your established submittal process.

What happens after the seven-day trial?

Editing tools lock unless you have a valid paid entitlement. You can still open, view, print, and save existing work. The trial requires a verified account and internet access; sending this form does not create or reset a trial.

Do I need a credit card to try Layr?

No. Leave your email to continue to the download, then sign in inside Layr with Google or an email link. You only enter payment details if you choose a paid subscription.

Will my drawings be uploaded?

The Windows desktop app renders local PDFs on your computer. Adding a PDF to a shared cloud project uploads a copy for collaboration. Keep confidential documents local unless you are authorized to share them.

Does Layr replace my specialist trade software?

Layr supports PDF review. It does not approve submittals, certify fabrication dimensions, or replace CAD/CAM software.
