I frequently copy excerpts from a PDF using the 'Snapshot' tool ('G' keyboard shortcut) and paste them into emails and chat (MS Outlook & Teams). I love that it can retain vector data and have customized resolution. However, I ran into an issue trying to copy the full page. Even with a basic, unlocked, 8.5x11 page with…
I might be in the minority on this, but I REALLY dislike giving someone a new Bluebeam license. It's way too busy and annoying. Once in the admin portal, add their email. Choose a license (I am okay so far) A separate email goes out to the EU, which needs them to fill out their name, a Bluebeam name (JUST WHY), and a…
I'm trying to share a profile with a colleague but the profile won't upload to his machine without my drawing. the profile used to share without the drawing but now it won't load without the drawing? Any ideas on how I can remedy this
After right clicking on a thumbnail and choosing "Email pages", it'd be nice to be able to choose a file name myself.
Did you know that double-clicking a Bluebeam Revu Profile (.bpx file) automatically opens Revu and imports the profile for you? This is the quickest and easiest way to have a User import a Profile. It is a very low impact for our non-technical friends and co-workers. 😅 It is much better than explaining how to click the…
Current Workflow: I have four open files that I need to share via email to someone. Step 1: Use Ctrl+e, launch a blank email with the file as an attachment. Step 2: Switch tabs in Revu. Use Ctrl+e, launch a second blank email with the file as an attachment. Steps 3-4: Repeat Step 2, two more times. Step 5: Drag files from…

Hello, Is it possible to create an auto export button to create a separate PDF document from all the separate layers. We now do this manually within our company to attach these estimation plans to our quotation as attachments. In sales phase, we do not want to release all our measurement data that we use in bluebeam. This…
My understanding is that each person has to sign up for their own notifications. From Project Settings > Manage Notifications > Account Preferences I can elect to receive notifications whenever there are markups and updates. I would like to have the ability to turn on notifications of markups and updates for all who join a…
When signing a single page in a document, we can customize the "Reason" field with any text and don't need to use the preset fields. This is very useful when we need to write legal text before submitting PDFs to municipalities. When using the Batch Sign & Seal tool, we can only choose the preset Reason fields and can't…

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…
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.
There should be a way to add layers in a pdf on blue beam studio to have to set them all up sheet by sheet then upload them is very time consuming each time a new sheet is added or if someone else adds sheet
I have recently been upgraded to Revu 21 and I remember my tools having custom properties applied for certain tools. Like attaching cost codes to specific tool chest items. I am not seeing the custom fields in the properties window now. Where did it move to?
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…
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 have the Revu Complete plan. Revu is largest user of memory on my system. Right now I have 4 plans open and my memory usage is at 2,486.6 MB I seem to hover around 2,000 MB. Could there be a setting I need to change which will reduce this usage? I have some lagging in other programs. I had attemped to use Studio once to…
Hello y'all ! Is there someon who know how to export coordinate of each control point? (Polyline, not polylength measurement) Thank you ! :-D
Is there some reason why OCR works on some text in a drawing file and not other text? It looks to be the same font as other text on the drawing that OCR was successful in making searchable. Sorry I am unable to include a snip due to IP. Can anyone share their OCR settings? I've been using Bluebeam for years and still have…
