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.
Hi all, I am posting to check if there has been any changes with support for fully independent windows when dragging tabs out. When I drag a tab away from the main window, the new window does not have the full toolbar, and minimizing one window causes both to minimize. I know I can open a new instance from the taskbar, but…
I often use Revu to combine documents into one PDF. Revu always asks if I want to save the stapler job before exiting. I never want to save the stapler job. Is there a way to stop that "Save Job before Exiting" popup from coming up?
Hello peers, My goal using BB is to create excel spreadsheets of the counts of Exhaust Fans, Grilles, equipment etc. But most importantly ductwork. Instead of using the measurement tool where it gives you red measurements inbetween two arrows, is there a way I can highlight the duct run and it store the measurement?…
Feel like I'm losing my mind. but I save my custom column to profile but every time I bring in a new PDF it removes it. What can be causing this. I have saved my profile and custom multiple times a day
Is there any work-around to no keyboard shortcut for exporting a page region to Excel? I have made several (unsuccessful) attempts to figure out a way to pin this function to a toolbar, but this does not seem possible either. Is there a feature that I don't know about that will allow me to simply add this shortcut, or add…
As I was preparing my response to @Troy DeGroot's post about custom line types I stumbled on to something that seemed odd. My original work with the custom line types was performed on my desktop at the office. When I opened the file from my laptop, I was surprised that the custom line styles that I had created weren't…
Is there a way to change the search engine used when I look up text from a file?
Hi, I'm a new user and want to edit some text on an existing PDF file. Can somebody please help me on how can this be done. I can use text box to add content, but not edit the original content.
When a quantity link is set up in excel, it imports the value into the cell. It also uses the cell to the right of the link to tell us what that value is representing. example-sqft Can I stop it from talking the cell on the right? I just need the number.
In the latest update 21.7, semi-transparent or "highlight" markups are completely blocking out the content when measuring many documents. This creates more work if I have to guess a point location then remember to come back and fix it. I've been using BB for more than 10 years and the markups have always respected their…
