Is there any way you can make the reply to a comment on a PDF "pop out" when you hover over it rather than have to search for it in the markups list?
I am encountering an odd condition. When placing a text box or call-out text box, the orientation is 90 degrees from horizontal. After entering the text, I have to rotate and size the box. I tried rotating the PDF to see if the original orientation of the document mattered, but it did not. Settings, software glitch? Please…
Our workflow in our office often has us copying comments from one PDF into another PDF in a session. However, we lose all authorship information of the comments with the person copying over the comments inheriting the comments. Is there any way to maintain the author of the comments when copying those into a session?
Currently Bluebeam is automatically selecting the printer last used. Is there a way to select a default printer, which would be automatically selected each time I print?

Hello everyone, I am trying to see if I can change the default metric area measurement label on the system from 'sq m' to a familiar 'm2' label here in the UK. All the instructions, videos online, help searches are silent on the matter. Also been in touch with Tech Support and they were unable to help and suggested I reach…
I'm looking to automate a custom column (or columns) by grouping 2-4 dimensions, and then having the total show up in the 'width' column (figured this part out) but having the individual dimensions separately show up in another column. ie, the example here is 4 dimensions, they are grouped together with a total width of…
How do I import my Notary Seal and add it to my stamps? I scanned the seal and uploaded it to Blue Beam using the create stamp tool. When I use it, it stamps a whole 8.5" x 11" page. I just want the seal.

Is anyone aware of a setting that will allow me to navigate between cells in the markups list with the directional arrows, tab key, or enter/return button on the keyboard similar to inputting data in excel? We sometimes use the Markups list to collect additional data from drawings and it can be slightly laborious when…
Help? I review many documents daily and often shop drawings come in with the signatures on them. Usually, I just click I don't want to see the signature data and move along, but one day I accidentally clicked on the "save this choice" or however it is worded and now I can't figure out how to turn this feature back on! I…

I make a lot of PDF forms and BB's feature to "automatically create form fields" is time saving, so long as I want it to Justify Left all form fields and set the text to Helvetica Font Size 9. I find I want the majority of my forms to be AUTO font size and I want them CENTERED. I can't seem to sort out how to edit my BB's…
I have a .bex file (aka Bluebeam Sets) that I had been able to print the latest revisions just fine… until recently. Now, when anyone on the team goes to print the latest revisions, the Print diolog seems to list all the pages for each combined PDF, and only print the first chunk of pages. (The example below shows eight…

I purchased the iPad app. I use Microsoft SharePoint. I can't seem to connect to my account via WebDAV, it always says "Unable to Login" and "Forbidden". Do I need to configure anything in Microsoft 365?
