I've been trying to find a way to translate Counts to markups. I suggested it as an Idea in the Community, but has either gotten ignored or assumingly there may be already a way to do this. To get a better understanding on why I'm trying to chase the following: I work as a Project Engineering for an Electrical…
Currently, when Exporting Excel Markup Summary, Replies come in on a different line (see below image in red, first table). This makes tracking and sorting these markups quite cumbersome. Would love there to be an option to have replies come in on a different column. (see below, second table). Replies to replies would…
I was recently tasked with resizing thousands of PDFs. I can batch-resize them, but some are portrait and some are landscape. There ought to be a feature where multiple PDFs can be selected and all changed to portrait or all changed to landscape. Or, some sort of way to resize the portrait ones in portrait mode and the…
I have a profile that I have exported. When I try to import it to another computer, the file loads, but not the profiles. I've tried deleting the other profiles (although they keep appearing again even though they have been deleted). And just importing this profile. The profile works on my computer but when I try to upload…
I recently discovered the feature to export and import markups from one document to another. BUT this is not available for a document within a Studio Session! I like to export a document out of the session to mark up. This allows me to work at my own pace and not have collaborators respond to my in-progress markups live. I…
Please turn status settings into an importable files like tool chests/btx files or hatch patterns/bhx files. It will make things easier when you have a user that prefers their own profile instead of the company provided profile. Currently, if the company's default statuses change, the user will need to load a new profile…
Hi, In my opinion a very useful feature could be the possibility to export the outcome of a text-search results. By exporting the text-results in a Excel/CSV, will allow to make easy and fast the cross-check between the TEXT content in the PDF with a source Excel text-list. To be more clear, I would like to compare TEXT…
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…
Would be extremely helpful to have the option to save the summary to the same folder that the PDF resides in, and to be able to include this as part of the Config that I have saved. Currently the folder has to be navigated to every time in order to save the Markup Summary to the desired location. Would also be very helpful…
Hi, I would like to request the functionality to export the points of lines created by the mark-up tool. (Currently only the begin point is available, but both start and end points are needed.) I see the end point coordinates are available in the properties, but there is not currently a way to export that data. This would…

Hi, is there a way to add an oval shape callout in Bluebeam? In my industry, we often use oval callouts to identify equipment, but currently, only rectangle, circle, triangle, and hexagon options are available. It would be great to have an oval shape option or the ability to adjust the circle dimensions to create an oval.…

In particular, we’d like the report to include the ability to: Tag specific rooms or locations Attach a photo of each deficiency Provide a description of the deficiency…
Is there a way to apply multiple digital signatures to a document without having to Save after each signature?
After my last update… When I add a Dimension to a pdf the extension lines are way to long. Sometimes putting them off the edge of the page. I have: set and checked scale checked dim line and text size any ideas….
This is a simple question. When I've 'Checked Out' a document in my BB Studio Project and added mark-ups, does it automatically Save when I 'Check In'? Or should I click save first, and then Check In?
Occasionally, during a session a user will not see the status options needed to set the state. The occurrence is not tied to a specific user or session. This issue has persisted for years, and I am still searching for a solution - aside from additional markings or highlights in the session markups. Anyone else experiencing…
I was hoping to find a way to filter sessions by "My Status", so I can quickly see those I have marked as "reviewing" or "finished", but I do not see that as an option in any of the dropdowns that are visible to me. Does anyone know if this is possible? Thanks in advance!
Greetings, I have a question that I can't seem to find the answer. Hopefully I can get some help here. Is it possible to overlay and also compare two PDFs? When we only compare the files, we only see the cloud and sometimes it's not easy to tell what is the difference. If I can also overlay those PDFs, I can see the color…
What is the best way to track project issues? I have issues that are emailed to me by my contractor customers and need some way to flag it and remember to follow up on it. I am having too many emails fall through the cracks and are not resolved in a timely manner.
Hey everyone, first time post! So I'm a spec writer and am trying to convert pdfs into Word docs. Which is easy…except when Bluebeam creates the Word doc, all of the paragraph levels are assigned to the same Word styles. As an example, in the attached image all of the paragraphs are the same "List Paragraph" style in Word.…
