Bluebeam Tip: Efficient Document Revision Management for Large Projects with Bluebeam Batch Slip Sheet Feature

Leveraging Bluebeam's Batch Slip Sheet for Large Projects can significantly improve the efficiency of managing document revisions. Here's how to take advantage of this powerful feature for your large-scale projects:

  • Preparation is key: Before starting, ensure that all new revision files are named consistently and are organized in a manner that mirrors the current files they are set to replace.
  • Navigate to the Batch Menu: Within Bluebeam Revu, go to the Batch menu and select "Slip Sheet." This will open the Batch Slip Sheet dialog box.
  • Add Files: Click 'Add' to include the files you need to update. You can add files from multiple locations and even entire directories if needed.
  • Matching Options: Set up the matching criteria to align new revisions with their corresponding current sheets. Typically, this would be based on the sheet number or name.
  • Settings: Decide on your preferences, such as whether to carry over markups, hyperlinks, and spaces. Also, choose how to handle unmatched sheets and whether to archive superseded files.
  • Execution: Once settings are confirmed, execute the batch slip sheet process. Bluebeam will process the files, replacing the old sheets with the new revisions and transferring any specified data.
  • Review: After the process is complete, do a manual check to ensure all revisions have been correctly slip sheeted and that all markups are correctly transferred.

Using Batch Slip Sheet not only saves time but also greatly reduces the potential for human error during the revision process. Integrating this tool into your document management workflow can streamline project updates and ensure your team is always working with the most current set of documents.
