I have overlayed a couple of PDF's and completed some markups.
Can you add "additional" PDF/s to existing overlayed drawings?
Hi Secunda,
You would need to restart the Overlay, and copy/paste or import that markups from previous version.
A workaround would be to take a Snapshot of the drawing you'd like to add and paste it into the Overlayed file. You would then have to add to a layer, process the colors of the Snapshot or layer, and align the content by dragging the Snapshot to the right place. In other words, you lose out on the things Overlay automates for you.
I hope this clarifies things!

Hi. I've been banging my head against this one for a long time and it seems to be an intended feature. For all of my measurement markups, it seems like I can't add or modify comments. It will only prepopulate the comments field based on what I select to show in caption under properties. In practice what this means for me…
I'm working on a workflow in Bluebeam Revu where I need to tally items in multiples of 3, even though all materials are ultimately ordered in single units. The challenge is that many items I mark up are typically grouped in threes — for example, a single instance on the drawing represents three units of material. I want to…
One of our reviewers is having a problem that pops up randomly. The problem that happens is as follows and is totally random and occurs when reviewing any session(s): Extracting sheets with comments, pasting images, and details in various sheets. Once pasted images and text has been added to various sheets the reviewer…
