How are the new 2026 accessibility requirements impacting your PDF workflows?
Hi everyone, In light of the new ADA Title II regulations, many state and local governments — and the vendors who work with them — need their digital documents to meet WCAG 2.1 Level AA by April 24, 2026 (or 2027 for smaller jurisdictions). This includes PDFs that end up on public websites or portals. I’m trying to…

Form Support To Cloud
The company I work for uses Bluebeam Revu for IPAD Religiously for Studio and for site forms for QA/QC, daily reports, etc. We hate to see it going away, but we understand progress. We also see that cloud has a long ways to go to be a contender to it's predecessor. When will all of the previous tool sets be added in to…

I'm trying to establish a workflow for adding multiple engineers' signatures and seals to different sheets of a single pdf drawing package. Example: I have three sections to my plan set which is required to be submitted as a single PDF. Civil, Structural, Electrical. Each of the three sections must be sealed by a different…

Importing Bookmarks from Existing to New PDFs
Hello, I've been searching for a way to import existing bookmarks to a new pdf using bluebeam, but there is no such function. I reached out to Bluebeam support and they confirmed that this function does not exist and I should make a suggestion here. I would like to see a bookmark import function. Coming from using PDF…

Detached PDF Tabs Should Open as Full Windows
When detaching a PDF tab in Bluebeam, the new window does not include the full toolbar or markup tools. This makes side-by-side review difficult, especially on dual monitors. It would be very helpful if detached tabs could behave as full windows, similar to Adobe Acrobat. This would significantly improve workflow…

Studio Invitations
Not sure if this has been asked before. on the old Revu App, you can't accept invitations thru the app. can the cloud accept invitation for studio session thru the app rather than via email? thank you, Owen

Improve the document recovery
I worked on a document a good part of yesterday and then Quickbooks cratered my computer and BlueBeam managed NOT to do the recovery. That is terribly frustrating.

use of BlueBeam on ISO 26 iPad Pro
New Year new problems😶 we are trying to setup our field iPads to use BlueBeam and are having issues. BB Support indicate the iPad app is no longer supported as of Dec 2025 and to use the web portal app.bluebeam.com, when we enter the web portal address in the iPad browser it directs us to download the mobile app. What is…

Highlight Characters Beside
During a recent attempt with Claude to highlight all the callouts with the prefix of MW, I tried to have it extend the highlighting to the next few characters. It told me that it could not do this as Revu does not allow this. I think it would be a good thing to add a wildcard string to the Search function so that we could…

Bluebeam Sets: markups and file management
Hi all, I've recently been following the hype about working out of Bluebeam Sets as I'm looking for ways to streamline our workflow. I did have a question about viewing markups particularly when you are working with individual extracted drawing files as that seems like it gives you the best performance when working off of…

Ability to change default permission settings for sessions
Hi, I keep coming across the permission issues on a weekly basis between our teams that interrupts workflow substantially. Currently, when you open a session your only option is to click "Add Documents", however, if someone forgets to click this, none of the invited participants will be able to add documents until the…

Trying to create a new set (.bex) but it's already showing revisions on the sheets I select
I created a new set with a set of 7 sheets; I then did slip batch to add 4 revised sheets. I saved that set file but then deleted it because I realized that it did not match one sheet (sheet name changed), but I would still like for that one sheet to supersede the old one with the same sheet number. When I go try to create…

Markup Sort Functions (Multiple Column Headers)
While it is nice to be able to sort markups by column heading, it would be better if we could sort by more than one header without changing filters. Such as Subject then Label 2 column order functions.

Sets and Projects and Sessions
Would really love if there was more of a seamless blend between all of these great features. I think perhaps Projects should be the primary system. However, the collaborative markups of sessions is so much better then the checking in and out of files in projects. I think any and all files that are added to a project should…

Search Panel Progress Indicator
The Search tool includes a progress indicator that sort of blends in. OK, since I already know about it. For a new UI/UX, the small (body font) percent complete, especially for "Current Document" searches in large documents can lead to repetitive clicking until that progress indicator is spotted. It would be trick if there…
