How can i take-off materials quicker using blue beam. I normally see autocad PDF's. Ive tried exporting the comments but i would need to build a formula. Very time consuming.
Building toolsets in Bluebeam can be a tedious process but is very powerful with custom columns. What industry are you in? I'm in structural steel and we've built out some pretty powerful tools and workflows.

I'm trying to find a quicker way to consolidate the BOM on a isometric drawing that list bolts, gaskets, and etc. I did build take-offs with custom columns. I tried to use excel to extract the data from a OCR PDF Sheet but it will take a lot of time to try to edit and produce formula
I'm in industrial. So, I see a lot of piping iso's, steel and civil drawings. I start building the custom columns and it's working better. My other question will be.
How much data I put in for specs on custom columns can it handle
Generally Speaking, the more you use Bluebeam the quicker and more efficient you'll naturally become at using it however a great place to start is understanding the toolbox functions. I'm in Roofing & Cladding and we have a number of different toolboxes for the various roofing & cladding build-ups we offer as a business. Understanding the full use of the take-off functions is also very beneficial.

I have a client who is trying to mark up a set but is running into a situation where they can't add markups after a specific page. The prior pages are fine, but past the specific page they can't add any more. They are the only user who is having this issue, and I haven't been able to find a solution. Have I missed a…
Hi, support for PDF/A and all the different versions 1,2,3, a,b,u is not very common among all the different pdf-software out there.

Is there a way to make the lightning bolt to the right of the text? I have issues when I have the text in a list format the…
It seems sometime in Dec 2025 the invites sent out from the BB Session no longer has the name of the document in the session invite.
