We have 2 users the upgraded to this today. Now neither of them can print to Bluebeam.pdf(that option is no longer available) and Bluebeam is no longer integrated into their MS Word or Excel. However, Bluebeam works.
Very odd situation. Any ideas?
When they ran the install/upgrade did they have other programs closed? I had to rerun the installation because Outlook was open and the installer couldn't close it to finish. Also, they may have to restart their computers to finish the installation.
Before the update I was able to print a black and white pdf which made all my red lines loose color and allowed me to make new red lines that stood out. I can no longer do that. The work around is to do the print in Adobe Acrobat. Please restore the functionality of the black white button.
I have the same issue as Mike Hathaway. Unable to print to Bluebeam pdf and need a fix asap please.
Thanks,
@Dmonihan2LWE Our Product team did do some work on that and added a "Print in Grayscale" option on the Options section of the Print dialog. Are you able to use that option to get your desired print?
@Dmonihan2LWE, @Aily Roper
Print to Bluebeam as a pdf is no longer available why did they remove this feature?

Hey @Mike Hathaway and @ggarrison, apologies for the delay as I looked into this. I had a few follow-up questions from engineering before we can diagnose this issue:
What version/year of Office are you on?
Is it 32-bit or 64?
Thank you!
@Aily Roper thanks. Found the grayscale check box and confirmed it worked.
Hello Everyone,
I've been using Bluebeam for 12+ yrs now. I am very dissatified with 21.4 update.
Has anyone else here noticed this update changed the functionality of how markups are selected and controlled. More specifically if there are multiple markups stacked, you now are required to hold the shift key in order to select the markup you want instead of just being able to select the markup that was closes to the top, or instead of being able to zoom in and select the markup you want to you now can't and it seems to select the largest markup in the space.
I have also noticed the snap to page content and markups is not working nearly as good as it did and will sometimes not snap to content that it did before the update.
Another item I am frustrated with is the measuring tool. it used to be I could read the measurement as I pulled it across the screen, but now the measurement reads at a size that is not legible by any means.
I would greatly appreciate it if someone could tell me how to revert back to the previous version because this 21.4 patch is costing my company money.

Microsoft office 365, 64 bit. Here is a snip of what happens.
Thanks for sending that over @ggarrison! I've passed on your problem to the Engineering team and they're looking into it, but they also suggest reaching out to Tech Support by submitting a ticket in case it's an issue with your environment. I hope this helps!
When this happens, I can't move a directory with that file. This reddit post solved it for me. You just need to disable the recent file list in Revu. But I would like to use the recent file list feature someday, now that I have to turn it off. Please fix this Bluebeam. Thanks.…
Hi all, We recently experienced a technical issue that caused users to have trouble accessing Bluebeam.com domains. The problem has been fixed, but it may take a little while for the fix to fully take effect everywhere due to how internet systems store temporary information. Thank you for your patience as everything…
Hi Bluebeam Community, I recently purchased two vacant residential lots in El Sereno/South Pasadena area to build at least two small temporary homes for families displaced by recent wildfires. This project will provide safe, dignified housing while survivors rebuild their lives—but I need your help to make it happen! How…
Resolved: Delete existing version and install old version. Question is in the title. I use the tool chest for my job, I make/edit/modify maybe 50-100 markups a day and whatever was done to the tool chest has ruined its functionality. A few examples: Double click to edit name is now extremely inconsistent. The markups are…
Hi, We are new to BB and just starting to setup our templates, library etc. I have seen comments on using BB for punchlists and viewed on youtube but does BB have a learning page on how to set these up properly? We do large multi storey hotel projects and ideally want a live punchlist of sorts. Thanks for your help
I have the Revu Complete plan. Revu is largest user of memory on my system. Right now I have 4 plans open and my memory usage is at 2,486.6 MB I seem to hover around 2,000 MB. Could there be a setting I need to change which will reduce this usage? I have some lagging in other programs. I had attemped to use Studio once to…
Has anyone experienced this issue after updating to version 21.6? It doesn’t happen every time, but occasionally I get a popup that prevents Bluebeam from opening. When this occurs, I’m unable to launch the application at all. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and found a solution.
I do an absurd amount of take offs, and count all day long. I LOVE being able to leave a sequence, and resume it after looking at another page. This doesnt work anymore? Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
I frequently copy excerpts from a PDF using the 'Snapshot' tool ('G' keyboard shortcut) and paste them into emails and chat (MS Outlook & Teams). I love that it can retain vector data and have customized resolution. However, I ran into an issue trying to copy the full page. Even with a basic, unlocked, 8.5x11 page with…
Is there some reason why OCR works on some text in a drawing file and not other text? It looks to be the same font as other text on the drawing that OCR was successful in making searchable. Sorry I am unable to include a snip due to IP. Can anyone share their OCR settings? I've been using Bluebeam for years and still have…
