Course Overview

Basics and Studio are designed to introduce new users to the core features of Bluebeam Revu. You

in a PDF drawing set.

Document Control is designed to help you organize and manage your documents over the course of a
project. You’ll be introduced to key features in Revu to help you navigate through drawings faster,
detect changes, and manage revisions.

measurements. Streamline your estimating workflow by creating custom columns to calculate
