This was an interesting conversation. I think our current Bluebeam Community shows this diversity of career options pretty well. Bluebeam is certainly NOT a one-trick pony. My dad was a concrete finisher for about 30 years and told me to stay far away from construction. He told me to get a degree and find a good desk job. Well, I got the degree and a good desk job… in the construction industry. I hope he isn't disappointed in me. I actually tried to stay clear. I joined the Army, went to college for about 10 years (only one degree to show for it though), and married a city girl. I thought I'd never need to deal with the trades. Well, I don't recall exactly what got me here (probably the COVID lockdowns), but I couldn't be happier, and Revu is one of my all time favorite programs to work with. As for the Mean Tweets… that was pretty funny. I love when total strangers say things like "this is the worst thing ever 0/10". They give no support to the claim and expect other strangers on the internet to just take their word for it. lol
What a great story. I've been really thinking that we need to get more of these kind of stories into the podcast in the future, I like to hear people's "origin stories". Also I was a bit worried that the mean tweets thing might come off as me not taking feedback seriously. My whole job is bascially listening to people complain about Bluebeam and I want them to know that it IS important to me to understand what's going on and to try to find solutions and fixes. But it was fun to just joke around with Luke, so I think it came off in a light hearted way. Next episode is coming out soon, so stay tuned as they say!
Great to hear Stephanie's and Luke's origin stories. It was quite an entertaining and informative episode to listen and watch. Nice work team!! I had to laugh when Stephanie mentioned doing door takeoffs as this is a big part of my job today being a doors and hardware subcontractor. Looking forward to watching episode 2 :).
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…
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.…
I think it would be useful to have a tool to mark several/all pages in a PDF with a watermark. In my specific case, I'm trying to note that a specification in a project manual still needs updates, but to do so in a manner that looks polished and professional. If a tool like this already exists, it would be useful if it…
I'd like to see a tool where you can magnify part of document/drawing/detail/etc via callout or simple shape on a drawing. See video below for SolidWorks and Apple Photos examples.

Everytime i start a new pdf the first thing I have to do i change it to Fit to Page so I can see the whole pdf.
Revu is powerful, but lacks the ability to configure/save Workspaces for specific tasks. As example: Markups The native dock location (bottom) for Markups is not very user friendly. Yes, I can drag it out and position on the side, so I can still see our 24x36 (ARCH D) engineering plan sheets, but it has several issues.…
Hello, recently I have encountered an issue regarding certain snapshots and their interactions in other PDF viewers after flattening. When documents flattened in Bluebeam Revu are opened in Adobe Acrobat, snapshots that were previously flattened are able to be selected and edited. Is there a way to have snapshots flatten…
I'm currently working on customizing the engineering review stamp from the custom libraries, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit it without disabling the pop-up feature that appears when placing the stamp. Ideally, I want the pop-up to remain active so that the reviewer can fill out the required fields…
Ok. So I have decided to throw in the towel and look for some help. Towards the end of the year I made a form in Word and then made it fillable through Bluebeam's "Automatically Create Form Fields" in Tools (I believe as it's been a good while). Both samples attached. Since then I have been doing other things, have had…
I have one user, in one PDF, when he click on the screen, the page advances. He's unable to do markups because the page keeps advancing. I've never seen the behavior and we can't replicate it. It doesn't happen to other PDFs in the same sessions and reoccurs if Bluebeam is closed and reopened.
