Can you create a button to mirror the PDF and it's not the same as rotating.
If I understand what you're looking for, to accomplish this today you could right-click on a page from the Thumbnails panel and choose Copy Page to Snapshot (Ctrl+Alt+C).
Next, create a new PDF with the same page size and then go to Edit > Paste in Place (Ctrl+Shift+V).
Then, right-click on the pasted snapshot > Alignment > Flip Horizontal (Ctrl+Alt+H).
Finally you'll want to flatten the snapshot so it is no longer an editable markup on top of the page. Right-click and select Flatten.
I realize this is several steps and not 1-click, and wouldn't be scalable for a lot of pages, but does this create the results you're looking for?
I'm curious about what scenario(s) you have to do this.
Also, how often do you have to do this, and for many documents/pages?
Hello!
I followed your steps in the discription above and it works just fine. I would like to take it a step further though.
The reason I want to do this is to overlap to another pdf (drawing) to se if there is any differences between them. This does'nt work when my new mirrored pdf is blank when i go to Document> Overlap pages. (se attatchements)
Is there any way to fix this?
Also, just to be sure. Is "Flatten" the command with the weight? I have a Swedish version of BB Revu so I have a bit of language issuses.
I'm not sure what is going on with your mirrored drawing as nothing shows up when you start to use the overlay function. However, have you just tried overlaying the original pages using the manual 3-point aligning i.e. without doing any sort of rotations?
Yes, the "Flatten" icon looks like a weight.
Something about 19-113 speglad doesn't allow the overlay to work. Without making any changes, the overlay doesn't recognize any of it's content so only the content from V-57-1-02-19-113 shows up.
I would have thought the instructions from @Jared Adler - Bluebeam CSM would have worked. Turns out that the Overlay tool ignores snapshots, even when flattened.
I supply Doors, Frames, and Hardware, this will make it easy to keep the door handings correct on multi-family/hotel type projects.
I believe the crosshair color customization needs to be restored. I relied on this feature for a long time, and in the newer version it appears that I’m no longer able to change it. This change significantly affects my workflow.
Hey, Is anyone know why Revu is crashing. I open it uplaod plans start measuring and it just crashes. I have uninstalled and re-installed. I have a very time sensitive project that I am doing and need it now and support is over 24hrs away. Any help be much appreciated. Thank you
Hi!, I'm a senior technician in an architect office, and I regurlarly do some site surveillance and dificiency reports. I am looking for an app on a tablet to consult plans (pdf format ideally), annotate them with comments (ideally speak-to-text) that will generat a list of comments with a "pin" on the pdf plan localising…

I marked up a cloud in Revu and added three comments to the markup. On the web version, I can see all three comments. However, on the iPad, only two are displayed, and the first comment is not visible. Does anybody know how to display the first comment on the iPad? The image below is how you see it on Bluebeam for Web: The…
Good Morning Has anyone successfully imported their take-off from Bluebeam via excel into Trimble Contract Master Estimation software and have you managed to link an item in that take off to your database item?
If you choose an area and set the color, line weight and so on, then click out of measurement you have to then go back and redo all the particulars for that item that you are trying to take off. Can this be remedied? Onscreen allows the user to set a group of items to use repeatedly throughout a set of drawings (color,…
Is it possible to extract data from multiple pre-defined locations on hundreds of scanned PDF's and extract/export to excel? Scanned pdf's would have same form and locations of information. I have been able to extract all of information on pages (creates mess) but no way to capture just certain fields/locations?
Is there any way to autogenerate markups in Bluebeam instead of manually tracing every area and perimeter? I bid multiple jobs a week, and these "robotic" takeoffs are a huge bottleneck. Does Bluebeam have an AI feature to auto-detect these boundaries and generate the markups? Manually tracing miles of sidewalk, asphalt,…
Curious if anyone adds a "time" or "man hours" columns in their markups list when doing takeoff. I have some ideas but unsure if they will actually be useful. For example: 10 LF of footing = 1 man hour. Does anyone have any tips on adding custom columns on their markups for time? I already utilize it for material cost per…
