How do I export all pdfs into one? I am going in a field visit tomorrow and I am trying to use a revu project in the field.
I have a user that as of this morning is experiencing an issue with typing spaces into any markup text entry field. Text boxes, Callouts, comments etc. The behavior is a bit hard to describe so bare with me. If the preceding character to the typed space is a letter or most symbols then the space does not appear normally…
Just recently I get this dialog box when using File/Open pulldown. I can use the Open From Disk button to get to the local server our files are stored. Does anyone know how this default changed or how to change it back? Thanks!
Why all of sudden are my files loading slow regardless of how I open them and how I change my hardware or rendering settings. I have been using Bluebeam for years with no issues like this until directly after the update. Below is the version I have…any help or insight would be appreciated..
Anyone else having issues with applying a markup filter and the drawings aren't graying out the filtered-out markups? Is that an error or an update to the latest version? I've got my filtered annotation dimmed to 40%
Is it possible to use Blue Beam to tell me the slope of a ditch in terms of 3:1 to:1 4:1 using the measure tools or any other tricks?
I'll start by saying that I'm concerned with how the Bluebeam Cloud app for iPad functions compared to the old Bluebeam iPad app for our companies work flow. We have a set of custom .btx files we use to create punch lists during deficiency reviews on our iPads. How do I load our custom .btx files into the Bluebeam Cloud…
When creating a legend for Square Footage I can get the quantity for each space, but is there a way to get a summation at the bottom?
I am very confused by the interface and by the fact most tutorials are from older interfaces. All i need to do is takeoff, with a legend, that i can export quantities from. can someone give me a step by step tutorial on how to do so?
Has anyone had Bluebeam stop refreshing the view while working on documents? This has become a real issue for me. I often have several single sheet PDFs open while reviewing plans sets. I do this so I can cross reference from one sheet to the other to verify all sheet are consistent. I need to be able to look at multiple…

Please add folders within sessions for document organization. This will make navigating to the documents within a session cleaner and easier as documents within a session can add up and be cumbersome to have to search through to find what the user is trying to open. This feature would be greatly appreciated by all. Thank…
Hi all, my name is Aily, and I'm the Manager of Customer Education at Bluebeam - nice to meet you! I want to learn how you prefer to train, onboard, or up-skill your internal employees on everything Bluebeam, so I can make sure we're allocating the right resources to the right kinds of training (aka help me help you!). If…
On the Bluebeam website, under "Resources" > "Need an older version of Revu?" there is only v20 and older. This needs new options, like v21.6. Currently the need for this is high, because v21.7 has a highly annoying "new feature" while drawing polylines, areas and contour and area measurement. Something goes visually wrong…
I just installed version 21.4 this morning on a second work machine, and encountered the common problem of Print to Bluebeam being broken during install. I resolved the problem using the following steps (Windows 11, 64 bit). I have admin privileges, so make sure you can make such changes before starting. I can't guarantee…
While I wait for the influx of new members from the PHX/NorCal bug webinar I thought I'd ask about your experience with making custom hatches and line styles in Bluebeam (the topic of the webinar). There were some great examples of custom hatches and lines that made a lot of sense for those users. One was a civil office…
If you've ever had to place a symbol on a drawing more than three times, you've probably wondered, "I wish I didn't have to keep clicking on the symbol every time I want to place it." I have great news for you 😀 The Reuse Tools option keeps that tool selected for placing as many instances of a symbol as you need! There are…
Did you know that double-clicking a Bluebeam Revu Profile (.bpx file) automatically opens Revu and imports the profile for you? This is the quickest and easiest way to have a User import a Profile. It is a very low impact for our non-technical friends and co-workers. 😅 It is much better than explaining how to click the…
I should be able to post a link here and have it take you to a Bluebeam session and a specific file within it. http:// (session URL) / file I should be able to link to a markup even as well. Why isn't this in Bluebeam yet? It's so frustrating that we (in multiple workplaces I've been at) have to say "hey folks we posted…
I would like another option for locking that allows for a shapes dimensions to be locked, but still be able to move the shape / sketch around. An example of this would be a toggle for "dimension lock" where I could trace the outline of a building and rotate / move it around a site or property without accidentally changing…
I know that Bluebeam makes it difficult to select a markup that is under another markup—try selecting a markup four levels deep! BUT! I ran a demo today, and a 💡 went off in my head. Can I make a Keyboard Shortcut from the R21.2 Hide selected markup feature and use it to quickly hide obscuring markups to get to the markup…
