I have not found a way to create bookmarks for a spec book that only includes the first page for each spec section. I do not want to bookmark individual pages within a spec section. The bookmarks should mirror the table of contents.
I was told by Bluebeam that sending messages with session invites were removed in the newest update due to people putting malicious items in that field. I would suggest that you all reconsider that. I put deadline dates for reviews in that field and now I have to do extra work by sending emails in addition to sending out…
Hi all, I have not been able to find a way to open a PDF in a new instance of Bluebeam Revu x64 Complete when on a virtual desktop. When I try to open a PDF it brings me back to desktop 1 and opens in my existing instance. Is there a setting I am missing? I can make Bluebeam show on all desktops, but that defeats the…
On my org admin portal there was a link to trial MAX. I went through that process, but I don't know how to get Bluebeam MAX on my computer… Is there a download?
Hello everyone, I'm trying to find a way to convert Bluebeam BTX files into PNG image files. Has anyone worked with BTX files before or know of a tool, utility, or workflow that can convert them to PNG format (batch conversion would be even better)? I've tried several file converters and extraction tools, but they either…

Hi Everyone, We’re looking to better understand how customers use Bluebeam Revu in their day-to-day workflows, especially around Studio Sessions and Projects. If you regularly collaborate on documents, manage files, or coordinate with internal or external teams using Bluebeam Studio, we’d love to hear from you. This would…
The current Studio folder setup appears to sort files alphabetically by default. Since Studio is where markups are stored for the field team to use, it would be very helpful if folder contents were fully customizable. Specifically, I would like the ability to drag and drop files into a specific order. This would allow me…
This week, we're highlighting how to turn Show Measurement Value for Dominant Markups Only on & off! When measurement markups are grouped, Revu automatically combines values such as Count, Length, Area, Wall Area, and Volume into a single total in the Markups List. But sometimes, you only need to see the value of one…
I have talked with tech support about this current feature a while ago but there is a feature / command to cut and paste an entire files red marks from one file into another exact copy of that file, just transferring red marks. Only issue was, it is not turned on for use in a bluebeam session. I was told Bluebeam might…
WHen you have done a mark-up and then you copy it and paste it at another location then you want to split the mark-up, it wont do it. Why is that? Wtih the original mark up, it allows you to split it.
This is probably answered somewhere, but search does not appear to be working I am and Admin in a studio session, but I cannot change the status of any markups even my own. The Set Status sub-menu in the right click is blank. Any idea on why or how to fix? Not been an issue till recently.
This discussion was created from comments split from: 📢 What’s New: Revu 21.4.
We are having an issue where our detailers are sending PDFs of blueprints and they will not be grouped by page size. Where this becomes an issue is when we go to print, we have (2) different printers we use. One large format and one smaller printer. Also, occasionally they get a page size wrong, (use 12x18 instead of…
Has anyone else experienced this? We use the person + icon within a studio session when we want to invite extra attendees. Their email addresses are added and then staff types a message which often includes critical information for the new attendees to get up to speed. But they are reporting that sometimes their invitation…
When a document has Form Fields (e.g. Tools —> Forms —> Text Box), the keyboard shortcut is inactivated. I can't use my regular keyboard shortcut. Normally, from my Tool Sets, I'd hit "1" for the green rectangle markup. I can still click and select them but I'd rather not to move my fingers off the keyboard….. Does anyone…
Hi We noticed today that a new column called "GoCanvas Status" is automatically enabled in all of our profiles. We understand that the current workaround is to uncheck the column and save the profile again. However, this becomes difficult to manage in our environment since we maintain around 30 different profiles deployed…
Hi everyone, In light of the new ADA Title II regulations, many state and local governments — and the vendors who work with them — need their digital documents to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026 (or 2027 for smaller jurisdictions). This includes PDFs that end up on public websites or portals. I’m trying to…
