Did you know that you can easily create a layered PDF from a group of existing PDFs, where each will be a separate layer in the PDF? First, go to File > Create > Layered PDF Click Add Open Files to add all files currently open in Revu to the layered PDF. You can select a file and click to remove one. Comment down below: Do…
Hi Team, Can properties like those available to edit bookmarks please be added to layers? For example, Bold, Italic and Highlight.
When selecting layers, CNTRL SHIFT select , we cannot move the LAYERS in a group they HAVE to be done individual this is extremely inconvenient as its a simple movement of layers and option If we have 100's or layers, this is very time consuming when a simple option to select all in a group and move up or down into a…
Keyboard Shortcut Key Request: Add ability for the user to select a single layer to be assigned to a keyboard shortcut key for toggling on and off that layer. Example: Layers: Main document Overlay document #1 Overlay document #2 Right click overlay document #1 layer > assign to layer shortcut key > toggle on/off assigned…
Working with really large PDF sets, sometimes it seems performance may be hindered by a set with layers that were exported from the originating software, i.e. AutoCAD. It would be nice if there was a merge layers option to bring all layers to one.
I submit a request about the printing of drawings, measurements and markups that are in specific layers. I draw measurements in buildings to demolish or to construct, on an architect et engineer drawing; I design one layer for unique elements, one layer for elements on the ground, one layer for vertical elements on walls,…
I apply markups on top of each other to represent takeoff items for estimating. Each markup is on a separate Layer so that they can be toggled on and off for clarity. I will then group these markups and add them to the Tool Chest for repeat copy and paste. These pasted markups are then Ungrouped so that I have individual…
As a long-time user of both Bluebeam and AutoCAD, I'd like to propose a feature that would significantly enhance layer management workflow: a dedicated layer toolbar with a dropdown list, similar to AutoCAD's implementation. Layers are crucial to my workflow, both for markup organization and CSV export processes. While…
This week, we’re highlighting Layers in Bluebeam Revu. Layers let you organize content, making it easy to show or hide different elements like markups or design details. How have you used layers to keep your documents organized?

Is there a tool which can apply a template to an existing PDF document? I can do it with the overlay tool, but its not efficient. I am currently specifically attempting to apply a letterhead to a PDF document without having to using snapshot, etc.
Long post for context: Yesterday I was trying to compare a revised architectural to realize that the floor plan has shifted in both the X and Y, so this morning I did a page snapshot. What I would like to know is, is there a way to snap to a point on the snapshot and move it to a point on the drawing?
I found this support article, but I don't see the options shown in the screenshot to send to Cloud. At the bottom of the tool set menu I only see Manage Tool Sets, there's no Send Tool Sets to Bluebeam Cloud.
Reposting this from Peer Support to USBUG: Since upgrading to 21.6.1, it seems I have to rearrange order of the tabs on each BB OPEN. I commonly start with about half a dozen tabs open for a couple of most active projects. I like to have them in order of Project 1 Specs, Project 1 CA Set, Project 1 Revisions, Project 2…
I have added our org SharePoint to Bluebeam Cloud (website) and I can see folders as I would expect. When I add my org OneDrive account to Bluebeam Cloud I see OneDrive and PersonalCacheLibrary folders show, if I click on OneDrive, it says "Something went wrong. Please try again." Never works, and I opened a ticket and…
I let my subscription lapse, uninstalled REVU, got a new opportunity and resubscribed. Installed new REVU package but when it starts it seems to be looking at the old, lapsed subscription. I can see the new subscription in Webstore but haven't found a way to get REVU to drop the old serial number and pickup the new one.…
Hi, I’ve just signed up for a 14-day trial. I received the confirmation email saying “Your trial has started” and Bluebeam Cloud works fine. However, in Revu 21 desktop it still shows Package: Unassigned and only opens in Viewer mode. Here’s what I’ve tried so far: Signed in with my BBID (the same email that received the…
Hello everyone, I work in the telecommunications field and frequently provide plan markups for various roadway projects. These plans often come in a wide range of scales—from 1" = 20' to 1" = 100'. I’m wondering if there’s a way to copy markups from a plan with one scale (e.g., 1" = 40') and paste them into another plan…
Introduce a return function in Bluebeam! For example; Let's say there are annotations on the floor plan that have hyperlinks that take you to that annotated elevation and from there you click another annotation marker on the elevations that takes you to that detail and if you want to go back, you either have to remember…
