Customise the Revu interface to suit your working style. Profiles can also be used to shape the User Interface of Revu for specific job functions within an organisation. Revu comes preloaded with several Profiles that are geared toward specific jobs and functions.
Standardise your custom markup tools across your company and saving them in the Tool Chest thus eliminating the time used in recreating them in the future.
All activities/changes, comments and notes can be tracked in an easy-to-use, interactive spreadsheet that you can sort, filter, and customise. Create custom columns with drop-down options or formula calculations to assign a status, set material types, perform take-offs, add estimates and more.
Import all markups from team members working on separate copies of the PDFs into your master copy with just a few clicks. Don't waste time tracing or recreating colleagues’ markups, now you can simply import them right onto your own master drawing.
Text searches can be limiting, especially when working with large, complicated drawings. VisualSearch™ in Bluebeam Revu allows you to search for graphical symbols in a document whether they are rotated, different colours, or have lines over them. Search results can be highlighted, hyperlinked, counted, and much more.
When working within large document sets in a project, navigation can be difficult. Bluebeam Revu Batch Link allows you to automatically create hyperlinks using file names, page regions, or page labels to make navigation much faster.
In any project, you will have a large document set collated from different contractors with different naming methodologies. Bluebeam Revu Automark feature can rename page labels automatically by using bookmarks or a page region such as page numbers at the bottom of a sheet. You can even select multiple page regions and set prefixes and suffixes.
Reduce errors and save time comparing multiple versions of drawings. You can even set Revu to automatically compare drawings pixel-by-pixel and add clouds around differences. The Compare Documents feature highlights the differences by comparing two PDFs. The differences are indicated with markups that can be reviewed easily using the Markups list.
The overlay process in Revu lets you compare two or more PDFs by converting each document to a different colour and stacking them on top of each other as layers in a new PDF. Each layer is transparent and blends with the layers below it. Where the colours are stacked directly over each other, they blend to create a darker colour, making it easier to see which elements have changed and which ones have remained the same from revision to revision.
Bluebeam Revu, all 3 versions, installed on your computer also installs a PDF creation buttons right into your MS Office menu, from where you can create PDF files by simply printing the document. Plugins are also available (in Revu CAD & eXtreme) for AutoCAD, Navisworks, SolidWorks, Revit, and SketchUp Pro, enabling you to create PDFs from within these software’s for easy sharing and collaborations. Batch creation of high quality, vector-based PDFs has never been easier!
Bluebeam Revu has the ability to print 3D PDFs direct from Revit, SketchUp Pro, or another 3D software. The three-dimensional PDFs can be marked up as easily as a regular document, but it has the added benefit of allowing the user to have a 3D perspective through the model.
Bluebeam Revu generated 3D PDFs incorporates information about the modelled elements within each project, such as materials and sizing information, which can easily be accessed simply by clicking on a component. Bluebeam generated three-dimensional documents can be viewed without the need of a modelling program.
Bluebeam Studio is a collaboration tool that lets your team from different locations, collaborate in live sessions or with stored project files, simultaneously. Up to 500 users can simultaneously work on and markup a single PDF file. Studio also comes with unlimited cloud storage space and the ability to upload any file type, enabling you to have all of your project files in one space for all team member to collaborate on.

Problem
Enterprise-wide efficiency issues and trouble with document management; underutilised tech and no way to standardise processes
Solutions
Automated processes within Revu
Results
Time spent marking up documents reduced from 8-12 hours to 25 minutes; improved user experience; reduced document setup time
Problem
Had to dig up and reconfigure old lines that had been repaired and moved through the years without access to proper documentation
Solution
Overlay feature within Revu to locate the old lines with greater precision than previously thought possible
Result
Completed the project in 1/3 of the time (3 months vs. 9 months); saved $30,000
Problem
Needed to use resources across multiple offices in the UK and Middle East to coordinate design for two projects
Solution
Bluebeam Studio Prime for real-time digital review sessions and administration controls for security
Result
Increased productivity by 60% due to faster communication; delivery of a paper-based project for the same client took an additional year
