In Revu Complete, there is an option to use Live Link to link measurements with cells in Excel. Here is a LINK to a YouTube clip that shows this feature. Bluebeam also lets you customise your linetypes for Markups and Measurements. Here is a LINK to Custom Linetypes. My tip is to create a ToolSet of at least 80% of all the measurements that you will need. If you are going to link Bluebeam to Excel, you need consistent, "clean" data.
Now linking from Bluebeam is great, I have made and seen some great workflows, just note that you will need to map all the data variations in Bluebeam to a single cell in Excel. So if you have 5 markups, with 3 variations thats 15 mapped links. If these have another 2 levels of options, say another 5 and then 3 that 5x3x2x5=150 mapped links. At some point you may prefer to use Export to .csv and review the data in Excel another way. You have some experimentation to do, but the work is worth it. Good luck.
I have been trying to create a link between my Bluebeam markups and a corresponding Excel Document/Table. I was curious if there is a way or a JavaScript Code that would allow me to export my markups list and then Bluebeam will update that export when I save it after I have made changes to it. I have used power query in…
Hello all, New to Revu.. I've set the scale on the measurement tool, but when I measure a known size on the drawing, it is showing a smaller size.

When creating a quantity link, can I filter items based on selected criteria? For instance, I have 5 subjects and each contains 10 label items, I'd like to display only the label items for the chosen subject. Currently, all 50 items are shown, regardless of the subject selected. Is there a way to achieve this filtering…
I am trying to figure out if there's a way to take a comment list and use the list to mark-up plans. We have a standard list in Word that has about 100 comments. I want to take the list and allow the use of one item at a time when marking up a plan. For example, one of the comments could say, "Provide rating where adjacent…
Hi I was wondering if anyone that's been using match filters in the advanced options for batch overlay pages that could help me? I have two documents and would like to match the pages.

Hello everyone. To day I am posing a question that I hope someone can assist me with. In short what I want is to know if Bluebeam is capable of opening a File (any type at all) from a CAD program such as Microstation or AutoCad, and recognize a line as an actual line, instead of just as an image (PDF)? A bit of background:…
Does anyone else have issues with using web email to send your Quotes (Or anything else PDF) out using REVU? I am constantly having emails go out late, Not go at all. This is a mission critical thing for me when I wear the estimator hat. These Estimates need to go out NOW. So the workaround must be to go to the file path…
