Add an option on markup summary to export only pages with markups

There was an error rendering this rich post.

Currently, if you mark "Include PDF hyperlinks" on the markup summary, the system exports all the pages in the original file even if the pages option is set to the specific pages with markups.

We love the hyperlink feature, but it is annoying to have to send the applicant 100 pages when only 20 have markups.

This might be a little bit of work but might be a method to get what you want.

After the PDF has been reviewed and you have your markups done. From the markups list hit CTRL+A to select all the markups. You'll then notice in the Thumbnails panel, only the sheets that have markups will have the blue outline around them. Right click on one of those sheets and choose Extract. The pages field should be automatically referencing just the sheets that are marked up. Create the new file and then run the summary and append to hyperlink the markup summary on that new file.

I think what you're running into is that the append and hyperlink will add the summary to the back of the current pdf. Which will be the entire pdf. So the method above will strip it down to the markup pages only, then they hyperlinking should be limited to exactly those sheets and nothing else.

Couple extra steps, but should work.

Bullet points & Indent text

Keyboard Shortcuts for Assigning Statuses
It would be a huge time saver to have keyboard shortcuts for assigning markup statuses. Numerous workflows (e.g. QA/QC and design reviews, punch/back-check) involve multiple status changes for markups, and often times there are multiple statuses (or state models) to choose from. On large projects, with 100's if not 1,000's…
Optimisation for the new arm based windows machines
I hope you're doing well. I'm reaching out because I have a couple of suggestions that I think could make Bluebeam even better. First off, I've been really impressed with the new ARM-based Windows machines, especially those using the Snapdragon Elite X. They’re powerful, have great battery life—kind of like MacBooks in…
Alert attendee log
It would be great be able to see to whom and when the "alert attendee" has been done. Today you can see exactly who and when markups has been accepted but there are no info at all if a markup has been alerted to someone.
