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
Now that Bluebeam supports SSO/SCIM, it would be great if Revu could talk directly to Microsoft Active Directory and add permissions for users, security groups, etc., directly in there. It'd only work within one company, but that's all I use it for anyway.
