Can you create a button to mirror the PDF and it's not the same as rotating.
If I understand what you're looking for, to accomplish this today you could right-click on a page from the Thumbnails panel and choose Copy Page to Snapshot (Ctrl+Alt+C).
Next, create a new PDF with the same page size and then go to Edit > Paste in Place (Ctrl+Shift+V).
Then, right-click on the pasted snapshot > Alignment > Flip Horizontal (Ctrl+Alt+H).
Finally you'll want to flatten the snapshot so it is no longer an editable markup on top of the page. Right-click and select Flatten.
I realize this is several steps and not 1-click, and wouldn't be scalable for a lot of pages, but does this create the results you're looking for?
I'm curious about what scenario(s) you have to do this.
Also, how often do you have to do this, and for many documents/pages?
Hello!
I followed your steps in the discription above and it works just fine. I would like to take it a step further though.
The reason I want to do this is to overlap to another pdf (drawing) to se if there is any differences between them. This does'nt work when my new mirrored pdf is blank when i go to Document> Overlap pages. (se attatchements)
Is there any way to fix this?
Also, just to be sure. Is "Flatten" the command with the weight? I have a Swedish version of BB Revu so I have a bit of language issuses.
I'm not sure what is going on with your mirrored drawing as nothing shows up when you start to use the overlay function. However, have you just tried overlaying the original pages using the manual 3-point aligning i.e. without doing any sort of rotations?
Yes, the "Flatten" icon looks like a weight.
Something about 19-113 speglad doesn't allow the overlay to work. Without making any changes, the overlay doesn't recognize any of it's content so only the content from V-57-1-02-19-113 shows up.
I would have thought the instructions from @Jared Adler - Bluebeam CSM would have worked. Turns out that the Overlay tool ignores snapshots, even when flattened.
Hi all, We recently experienced a technical issue that caused users to have trouble accessing Bluebeam.com domains. The problem has been fixed, but it may take a little while for the fix to fully take effect everywhere due to how internet systems store temporary information. Thank you for your patience as everything…
When this happens, I can't move a directory with that file. This reddit post solved it for me. You just need to disable the recent file list in Revu. But I would like to use the recent file list feature someday, now that I have to turn it off. Please fix this Bluebeam. Thanks.…
Hi Bluebeam Community, I recently purchased two vacant residential lots in El Sereno/South Pasadena area to build at least two small temporary homes for families displaced by recent wildfires. This project will provide safe, dignified housing while survivors rebuild their lives—but I need your help to make it happen! How…
Has anyone experienced this issue after updating to version 21.6? It doesn’t happen every time, but occasionally I get a popup that prevents Bluebeam from opening. When this occurs, I’m unable to launch the application at all. Just wondering if anyone else has run into this and found a solution.
Resolved: Delete existing version and install old version. Question is in the title. I use the tool chest for my job, I make/edit/modify maybe 50-100 markups a day and whatever was done to the tool chest has ruined its functionality. A few examples: Double click to edit name is now extremely inconsistent. The markups are…
I do an absurd amount of take offs, and count all day long. I LOVE being able to leave a sequence, and resume it after looking at another page. This doesnt work anymore? Does anyone have any suggestions for me?
Since it looks like there is no way to unflatten a form field I am wondering if there is a way to lock one. So far I am not able to get it to work. Thanks
I've run an overlay on an 88-page project with lots of changes. When trying to print a physical copy, it gets hung up. Even printing in batches is slow because several pages lead to virtual freezing. Are there any tips on how to improve/speed up the printing process? I've flattened and reduced file size, but that has had…
This past week, I've had three separate requests from people about editing forms they are filling out. I don't make forms, so I have limited experience with them, but I was wondering if there are solutions that can be built into forms. What each person wanted was to change the font style/size of the form field for improved…
I have been using Revu to build quantity take-offs for construction estimates, I’m trying to clean up the organization and structure of the markups. I typically sort the markups by the subject, but I need to be able to re-sort the line items before I export the take-off. I can’t manually move items on the markup list up or…
