By using the email feature, the emailed sheet took two weeks for delivery! Where are these files stored before sending or how did I initiate the 'send' button two weeks later!!:)
Hi Walter, it sounds like the "shortcut" didn't work out. Bummer!!
Can you provide some details on how you went through the process? - How big was the PDF? If it was a large file, your email service may have taken longer to send it. Although, two weeks seems excessive 😅 - Do you have an email template setup or did you use the default settings? - When you clicked "Email" or Ctrl+E, did it open your email app and show a draft message with the attachment? - When you hit "Send", did the message show in your outbox? If you check your outbox now, when does the message say it was sent?
When I just tried the command, my email draft said it couldn't attach the file. I tried sending a blank PDF without saving it first, and then after saving it. Neither worked for me…
The file was small (testing purposes).
File>Email>(a classic version of Outlook appears to open instead of new Outlook. This is possibly the reason!)
I'll check dates of sent message but I think it has more to do with Classic version of Outlook compared to Newer Version of Outlook!
That is likely the reason. I've developed a VBA Macro for my use that exports an Excel document & emails it. It works for me perfectly as I use Outlook Classic. A coworker uses the New Outlook and mentioned that my code does work but takes 2 weeks to send.
You can change your default 'Mail' program to be the New Outlook and that might work for your use case. Still test & come back as I'm curious on that.

Sounds a lot like an Outlook issue rather than a Revu issue.
The e-mail functionality in Revu is relying on MAPI which is not supported by new Outlook. For now it would be best to use Outlook Classic instead of new Outlook. I have looked into supporting new Outlook and the best we could do would be to have Revu launch a browser with a draft e-mail with the attachment ready to go but it would be Outlook on web bypassing new Outlook altogether. Out of curiosity, would you see this as an acceptable flow?
Absolutely

Does anyone know if there is a quick way (or any way) to do a bulk 'Find & Replace' on a markup? For example, I have x number of yellow widgets on a markup but the specification changes and I need to replace all the yellow ones with red ones instead. I want to be able to tell Revu to find all the yellow widgets, delete…
I should be able to post a link here and have it take you to a Bluebeam session and a specific file within it. http:// (session URL) / file I should be able to link to a markup even as well. Why isn't this in Bluebeam yet? It's so frustrating that we (in multiple workplaces I've been at) have to say "hey folks we posted…
You can create Layer Configurations to control the layers within a PDF but that must be done manually for each PDF currently. I would like a way to import and export these configurations. I have thousands of layers, so doing this manually is not feasible. Ideally, I would like a human readable / editable format (such as…
I’ve noticed that in Revu 21, every page in the Thumbnails panel now shows “Scale: Not Set” if the PDF doesn’t have a defined drawing scale. In my case, I review and organize a lot of documents like submittals, wiring diagrams, proposals, and building maps, none of which use or need scales. The problem is that the “Scale:…
It would be really helpful to be able to add layers AFTER a bluebeam session has been initiated. We use the layers to assign markups to particular users, which then allows them to filter their tasks.
With the new Bluebeam Cloud app, many of my foreman have switched from the old Revu app to this, and have requested a sorting feature. Right now it's only showing their jobs in numberic/alphabetic order. When we label our jobs, they get the job number first. So the most recent jobs are at the very bottom of the list. If…
