I would like to request an update to the Search tool within Bluebeam to allow a custom range.

And another (thanks @AnthonyLara): Page Range Search
I rely heavily on the Bookmarks tab. Many times, I review contract documents or project specifications, and I only want to search a specific page range of a document. To accomplish that I need to find that page range by clicking the first page of the specification section and the first page of the next section. I then select the Thumbnail view and manually select that page range illustrated below (pg 1359 – pg 1374), type the keyword, and click search. The problem is that once the search is performed, if I need to search another phrase or word of that specific page range, I have to repeat this process over and over again. It would be great to manually type in a chosen page range like Bluebeam allows in the Extract Pages tool (snip below). This would be a major time saver. The same is true when utilizing the image search to capture count measurements of an image like a light fixture, receptacle, fire alarm device, etc. I have to then go through and manually click the pages I want to search through rather than type a range 1-40 or 1,5,15,38.
Find the first page 1359 -- (260923 – Lighting Control Devices) |

Find the last page 1375 -- (261323 – MEDIUM-VOLTAGE-METAL-ENCLOSED-SWITCHGEAR) |
