When you use the snapshot tool in Bluebeam, the white portion of the copied area is transparent by default.  But if you paste an image of a drawing into your document, the background is solid.

To make the background transparent, select the image, click the Mask Color box in the Properties tab, and then select the color closest to your background. You can also use the eyedropper tool and click the background color of your image. Increase the ± tolerance next to Mask Color until the background is transparent.
