Utilizing Layers in Bluebeam Revu
Bluebeam Revu® allows you to create multi-layered PDFs that organize your content in whichever way most suits your organization. In Revu, there’s always more than one way to complete a task. Below, we’ll look at a few ways you can create a layered document, toggle layers on and off, and assign markups to a specific layer.
Create a Layered PDF:
The first method you can use to create a Layered PDF is to navigate to the File menu tab > Create > Layered PDF. This will prompt you to select which files to create a Layered PDF. Browse other files to begin layering.
Layers Panel:
Another method for utilizing Layers is to utilize the Layers panel. You can create a blank layer to add content or create a layer with content from another document.
You also have the option to create a parent or child layer and select its location before or after any current layers.
Overylay Pages:
The final method to utilize Layers in Revu is to use the Document menu tab > Overlay Pages. This will allow you to create a PDF from any currently open documents or browse other documents to layer.
NOTE: I prefer this method because you can color the layers and align them if they are not oriented properly.
Toggle On/Off Layers:
Once your layers have been configured appropriately, the (eyeball) icon in the layers panel allows you to toggle your layers on or off. A blank box means the layer is not currently turned on.
Assigning Markups to Layers:
Once your layers are created, you can begin assigning markups to specific layers. This is a great way to organize who said what.
Select markups in the Markups List. Then, choose which layer to assign the selected markups from the Layers column.
