Can Bluebeam convert a .pptx file to a PDF, and if so, how?
@bmarchitect I'd try right clicking on the file in the directory and selecting "open with" and choose Revu.
Not sure if it will work, but it's worth a try…
If it does work save it as a PDF from Revu.
Hope this helps. 😎
Thanks for the suggestion, but it didn't work.
It was worth a try!
@bmarchitect I probably should have asked what your end goal is. If you have the .ppxt file couldn't you open it in PowerPoint and then print it to a PDF?
I suppose you could, but I don't have powerpoint. I'll get a friend to try it. Thanks for the help.
Use the "Print to PDF" option in PowerPoint when you Print. I use that approach all the time.
My preferred method in PowerPoint is File>Export>Create PDF/XPS Document. I like this method because the created pdf pages are limited to the slide dimensions, and you don't end up with odd borders around your content.
I believe the crosshair color customization needs to be restored. I relied on this feature for a long time, and in the newer version it appears that I’m no longer able to change it. This change significantly affects my workflow.
I've customized the callout tool for weld mapping (O&G fabrication). I have the line, endpoint, and text box shape as I like them. My problem is, when used in drawing mode, my pre-populated text and text box size is exactly how I want it but the line endpoint and associated lines are locked in place (not ideal). If I use…
How do I select multiple mark-ups and copy them to all sheets in the PDF?
Help! I need to open AutoCAD files and can't find the basic instructions to find and install the plugin that will enable me to open, mark up, and save native dwg format files into a new pdf markup. I opened 'Administrator' but can't find the option to install a new plugin to Bluebeam. I only have Excel and Word plugins,…
I marked up a cloud in Revu and added three comments to the markup. On the web version, I can see all three comments. However, on the iPad, only two are displayed, and the first comment is not visible. Does anybody know how to display the first comment on the iPad?
I have a snapshot that I saved in my toolbox. The picture went away and the tool was grayed out, so I deleted it. The empty snapshot got onto my document while I was doing this process. I did not realize it at the time and continued marking up the document. Everything else is working properly. Now I have the grayed out…
Hi—has anyone found a way to navigate the menu bar using alt and arrow keys (or something else)? I'm currently seeing that pressing alt highlights "revu" on the left, but no key can drop it down or shift the highlight to a different menu bar option (eg document). I also notice that if alt is pressed, then a menu bar option…

Some of the consultant drawings I receive have a protected scale and when taking measurement and areas it doesn`t show up in the markup list. Also the drawing is blued out. Is there away around this Many thanks Murray
I've been trying to find anything related to this, but all I see is default tool 'settings' but I want to change the tool, not settings of the tool. The default selected now is the pan tool but my most used tool is the select text tool and when I open a new PDF or have multiple opened and then I close one, Revu will change…
