How to Copy in Revu Blue Beam and Place Image Grab

Cutting, Copying and Pasting

Bluebeam Revu supports the standard Clipboard functions allowing you to cut, copy, and paste data into and out of Revu. But, depending on what you are trying to copy, the process works a few different ways.

For the most part, these methods apply to text and markups. To copy graphics content, use Snapshot.

ClosedCutting, Copying, and Pasting Markups

Cutting, copying, and pasting markups works in a way most computer users will be familiar with. The clipboard tools can be found in the Edit menu, in the Edit toolbar, from the markup context menu, and of course you can access the clipboard commands with the familiar keyboard shortcuts.

ClosedTo cut a markup

  1. Click the markup to select it.
  2. Use any one of the following methods to cut the markup:

ClosedTo copy a markup

  1. Click the markup to select it.

  2. Use any one of the following methods to copy the markup:

ClosedTo paste a markup

  1. Cut or copy the markup as described above.

  2. Use any of the following methods to paste the markup:

Tip: When using either the CTRL+V keyboard shortcut or the right-click > Paste method, the markup is pasted at the current position of the mouse cursor (specifically, its lower-left corner is placed on the cursor).

Note: Pasting a cut or copied markup in Revu will carry over the entire markup, but pasting in an external application will paste the raw (unformatted) text only.

ClosedCopying Text Content

While text markups can be copied in the familiar way, copying text from the content of a PDF requires an extra step. Because that text is in the content layer, you have to first select it before it can be copied. See Select Text for additional information.

  1. Go to Edit > PDF Content > Select Text or press SHIFT+T.
    • If you wish to select all the text in a document, use Select All Text or CTRL+SHIFT+A instead; there is no need to click and drag as described in the next step.
  2. Click and drag over the desired text. Selected text is highlighted.

  3. Use any of the following method to copy:

ClosedPasting in Place

Paste in place places the pasted content in the same position that it was cut or copied from. When it is used on the same page as the cut or copied content, this means the pasted content is returned to its original position. When it is used on a different page, the pasted content is placed in the same location on that page as the one it was originally cut or copied from.

Use either of the following methods to paste in place:

  • Go to Edit > Paste in Place.
  • Press CTRL+SHIFT+V.

ClosedApplying a Markup to Multiple Pages

Markups can be automatically placed in the same location across multiple pages in a drawing. This is essentially an automated version of Paste in Place. It can be done from the document or from the Thumbnails panel.

ClosedFrom the Document

To apply a markup to multiple pages:

  1. Right-click the desired markup and select Apply to Pages. The Apply to Pages dialog box appears.

  2. From the Pages menu, select the desired apply option. Available options are:
    • All Pages: Applies the markup to all pages in the drawing.
    • Custom Range: Allows you to input exact pages to apply the markup to. When this option is selected, the field acts like a text box. When entering the range:
      • Use a dash between page numbers to define those two pages and all pages in between.

      • Use a comma to define pages that are separated.

        For example, entering the range "1-3, 5, 9" will include pages 1, 2, 3, 5 and 9.

      Note: Custom page ranges can be selected from the Thumbnails panel as well.

    • Even Pages: Applies the markup to all even pages.
    • Odd Pages: Applies the markup to all odd pages.
    • Landscape Pages: Applies the markup to all landscape-oriented pages.
    • Portrait Pages: Applies the markup to all portrait-oriented pages.
  3. Click OK to apply the markups.

ClosedFrom the Thumbnails Panel

To apply a markup to pages selected from the Thumbnails panel:

  1. Click a markup to select it.
  2. On the Thumbnails panel, press and hold CTRL while clicking the desired pages to select them.
  3. Right-click the markup and select Apply to Pages. The Apply to Pages dialog box appears with the custom page range entered.
  4. Click OK to apply the markups.
