• Write the Script: Use the JavaScript Console Window in Bluebeam Revu to write and test your script. For complex tasks, consider consulting the Bluebeam API documentation or hiring a developer.
• Test Thoroughly: Before relying on a script for critical work, test it extensively to ensure it performs as expected.
