Using Quantity Link with Excel Automation Scripts

JDR · 2025-03-20T15:03:44+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I am not very familiar with the Excel automation and scripts, but I am hoping someone on here has the knowledge of both Excel and Bluebeam to help me.

Has anyone setup Excel scripts to help link multiple data points from a Bluebeam file at once? If there is a project that needs hundreds of quantity links I think an Excel script could prompt the user to specify column 1 (label, subject, layer, etc), column 2, and so on. Then it would link your data points to specific consecutive cells.

Has anyone done something similar to this, is it even possible? Or is there a more efficient way to use quantity link other than going one cell at a time?

Digital Signature limitations
This past weekend I was working with some fillable PDFs from the Department of the Army (United States). Bluebeam was able to open the PDFs just fine, but signing them caused Revu to crash on me and it would say something about the type of file being unsupported. I ended up just downloading Adobe to sign those specific…
Bluebeam Studio Capability
Hi all I've been asked by a client to recommend software to store all of the drawings in an organised manner, ideally with an interface that links to the General Arrangement Drawings [e.g. click on a room and all the drawings are listed]. What they are after is a simplistic BIM. Is this something Studio could do ?
