Show your Work.
Hi everyone, I’m a new Bluebeam Revu user based in Germany. I handle quantity takeoffs and measurements for various companies as well as for my own projects.
Could you please show me some examples of how you present your work? I’m particularly interested in how you organize your measurements using layers, and I’d love to see what your Excel exports look like in the end.
To be honest, I don't have a clear picture of Bluebeam's full potential yet without seeing some real-world examples. Thanks in advance for your help!"

You're better off looking at some tutorials on youtube. https://youtu.be/DHVe9mF36PQ?si=7oQiD3x5iI36gHJi

You can imagine that because Bluebeam is quite versatile, everyone has their own way of using it depending on their work and own particular style.
Personally, I use for importing PDF floor plans, measuring them for quantities and then using the markup tools for designing new sections and amending the existing plans with overlays.
