Is there a manual I can download and print a paper copy and put in a binder or can anyone recommend an already published book/manual
This morning I did a batch overlay with a set of over 150 pages. What I would like to know is if I can modify the alignment of pages once it has processed? I would like from it using page region to reprocess individual pages as auto alignment.
I would like to know if there is any information that explains the best use for overlay and compare in there own functions?
Many of my customers organize their Recent Files into Categories. What is the best practice to get this handy piece of user settings across into a new Bluebeam setup? I used Ctrl+K > Admin > Backup / Restore, but the Recent Files content seems to be not in the UserPreferences.xml. Anyone here to tell me where it is and how…
Hi all, I have reached out to the support team at Bluebeam with little success with an issue i am having recently. I have a selection of custom mark-up tools and columns that were created last year for the take-off of pipework and ductwork insulation and have been working well for the most part. As I carry out my ductwork…
I would like to know if there are any place I could go to download toolsets for doors?
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…
There was an error rendering this rich post.
When I open a set of plans in Bluebeam, I get hundreds and many times thousands of items that automatically populate into the Markups List. I try to delete them but it won't allow this to happen. Does anyone know how to get rid of these or stop them from importing? They are mainly random labels, words or drawings…
Hi All. i have reached out to the support team, but without getting the needed help. They wrote that the problem was due to the drawing being "large", but the problem is not connected to all large drawings. The Drawing is not responding dynamic to zoom, but keeps loding in small bites/fields, making the it slow to work…

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…
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 have used BlueBeam Revu to create piping isometric drawings. However, this process takes a very long time and is painstaking because currently Revu only allows you to snap to 45° or 90°. If there was an option to turn on snapping to 15° increments, it would allow for much cleaner and faster creation/marking up of piping…
