Revu for iPad had its faults, but the features that include importing toolkits, and capturing images associated with a markup are essential to the way my team operates and completes field audits. It is my understanding that Revu for iPad is being discontinued in favor of the Bluebeam Cloud app. The Bluebeam cloud app feels…
Ok, So after a full weekend of messing around with Bluebeam Cloud and trying to integrate it into my teams everyday use, I have decided it doesn't work for us in its current form. I have no need for Bluebeam Sessions or Bluebeam Studio. Or if I do, Bluebeam isn't making it apparent. I love Bluebeam on my PC and I have been…
Hi, We are new to BB and just starting to setup our templates, library etc. I have seen comments on using BB for punchlists and viewed on youtube but does BB have a learning page on how to set these up properly? We do large multi storey hotel projects and ideally want a live punchlist of sorts. Thanks for your help
I'm currently working on customizing the engineering review stamp from the custom libraries, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to edit it without disabling the pop-up feature that appears when placing the stamp. Ideally, I want the pop-up to remain active so that the reviewer can fill out the required fields…
The desktop version of bluebeam already allows for non-pdf file types to be checked in and out of Bluebeam Studio Folders (for example, and excel spreadsheet). Offering the same feature for the iPad App would allow Superintendents on the field to utilize excel spreadsheets to track equipment rentals and other useful…
Georeferenced PDFs are not a new thing, but it was surprising to me that these files do not have supporting tools in Bluebeam. The company I work for has been evaluating the benefits of switching our standard PDF editor/viewer from Adobe to Bluebeam, and this functional gap was a downside brought up by one of my peers. A…

I have measured many different areas in relation to flooring. Now I want to create a new sub-zone on top of some of them, where Bluebeam should calculate how many square meters of the different types (e.g., based on color marking) are within this zone—ideally also showing the percentage of the total area at the same time.…
As I was preparing my response to @Troy DeGroot's post about custom line types I stumbled on to something that seemed odd. My original work with the custom line types was performed on my desktop at the office. When I opened the file from my laptop, I was surprised that the custom line styles that I had created weren't…
It seems that the transition from Prime Portal to Org Admin has officially begun. Unfortunately, the way it is being managed has left us with the inability to manage projects and sessions (and ownership) for an unknown period of time. My understanding had been that Prime Portal would be retired at the end of the year (one…
Hello, I can't get Bluebeam review to work with handwriting to text while using it with my XpPen artist Pro 13.3. I enable the Pencil Entry (Entré de Crayon, I'am using the french version) and I cant make a single A to make it appear in text… Thanks for reading.
Hi all, I am posting to check if there has been any changes with support for fully independent windows when dragging tabs out. When I drag a tab away from the main window, the new window does not have the full toolbar, and minimizing one window causes both to minimize. I know I can open a new instance from the taskbar, but…
Can I change blend mode - use transparency, and color with overlay layers? I am not able to manipulate. I want one layer bright and other reduced opacity.
Currently I add each open file to an open session by "right click - Add to open Studio Session". Is there a way to batch this process? This would save me a lot of time.
New to bluebeam, best way to locate stamp in a pre-determined location on a sheet?
Hello peers, My goal using BB is to create excel spreadsheets of the counts of Exhaust Fans, Grilles, equipment etc. But most importantly ductwork. Instead of using the measurement tool where it gives you red measurements inbetween two arrows, is there a way I can highlight the duct run and it store the measurement?…
Hi, I'm a new user and want to edit some text on an existing PDF file. Can somebody please help me on how can this be done. I can use text box to add content, but not edit the original content.
