When creating a Batch Summary, can you specify the font used to generate the PDF?
Hi All,
We are changing the company style guide and stepping though updating everything to match.
I am wondering if it's possible to change/specify the font used when creating a batch summary in PDF format? A long shot I know!
Thanks
Elizabeth
Re: Set Status in Sessions
That's some good detective work. Make sure to tell BB Support about the fact that deleting that folder seems to fix it. Maybe that will put them on the right track. I am personally way too dumb to troubleshoot things like this, but as far as I'm concerned, the Support team might all be members of Mensa.
Set Status in Sessions
Occasionally, during a session a user will not see the status options needed to set the state. The occurrence is not tied to a specific user or session. This issue has persisted for years, and I am still searching for a solution - aside from additional markings or highlights in the session markups.
Anyone else experiencing this issue or have a solution?
Re: Set Status in Sessions
On the same document, can a specific user sometimes see the status options and sometimes can't?
Or is it that some users can see the status options while others can not (same document)?
Re: Set Status in Sessions
Yes, it's the same document, some users can see the status options while others cannot. The issue appears to be random, affecting different people in different sessions.
Re: Set Status in Sessions
Are you still using floating licenses? And if so, are they the same version/level? For example are some users getting Revu CAD and others getting Revu Extreme? Is everyone on the same build? This is all unlikely but I want to exhaust the random possibilities, too.
Re: Set Status in Sessions
All good points - intentionally all work on the same version (21.5) and are generally up to date.
Autodesk has trained us well when it comes to this - appreciate the thoughts.
Re: Set Status in Sessions
The easiest way is to make sure the statuses are configured, is to make sure they are in the PDF prior to uploading it to a session. Status settings cannot be changed after upload. If the user still cannot set a status, check their license level. Users with Basic cannot create custom statuses, and I believe the "free" users cannot set status.

Appreciate the response. All the boxes for the items you listed are checked. Please see my response to Luke above for more details.
Re: Set Status in Sessions
I have contacted support in the past, but they didn’t have a solution - this issue has been ongoing for years. I opened a new case today to see if anything has changed, so that’s currently in progress. I appreciate the suggestion.
What seems to work is renaming or deleting the "Bluebeam Software" folder located in AppData\Roaming. Credit to Reddit for that one - it does resolve the issue, but it resets everything. I would share the link, but I’m not sure if that’s appropriate here. If you're curious, try searching "I can't edit or change status in my own Bluebeam Session" and look for the post by Administrative_Hat_6.
As for the items you listed in your second paragraph, all the boxes are checked.
Appreciate the response!
