Bluebeam – Level I Part II
Tuesday, February 11, 2025
9:00 am – 10:30 am
Description: In Level 2 participants will take some of the topics from Level 1 and expand on the capabilities of these tools. Advanced Markup options will be covered with the introduction of Batch Link, Sets, Fill in Forms and Custom Columns that calculate the cost of a drawing’s object, and then total the cost. Designating areas of your pdf as Spaces, gives them a unique name, allows you to add color to them, and creates a hyperlink for easy navigation. Advanced room measurement tools will be covered in detail.
- Batch Link (Extreme version) allows you to use the title page of a large document to create hyperlinks to each sheet number with one procedure.
- Sets allow users to open a collection of documents in a single view with the pages organized in a specified sorted order, including any revisions and addenda. Users can navigate through multiple files as though they were one document without merging them into a single file.
- Expanded work with markups and tool sets.
- Forms allow you to email fill in forms to people who do not own Bluebeam. In addition, you can automatically create an Excel workbook to tally all the responses in one place.
