Bluebeam Tip: Optimizing Annotation Efficiency with Custom Stamps in Bluebeam Revu

Efficiency in annotation is crucial when dealing with extensive PDF documentation. Bluebeam Revu offers a feature that significantly streamlines this process: creating custom stamps. Custom stamps are not only time-savers but also ensure consistency across documents and teams. Here's how to leverage this feature to enhance your productivity:

• Open the "Stamp" tool by navigating to Tools > Stamp.
• To create a new stamp, select "Create" and choose an existing PDF or image file that you'd like to use as a stamp.
• Edit the stamp using the "Add Text", "Add Date", "Add Time" or other available fields to make it dynamic and adaptable to your needs.
• Once you have created your stamp, you can save it for future use by selecting the floppy disk "Save" icon.
• Apply the stamp to your PDFs by selecting it from the Stamp tool dropdown and clicking on your document where you want it placed.

For professionals who require quick access to their stamps, Bluebeam Revu allows customization and saving of stamps within the Tool Chest for easy drag-and-drop onto PDFs. This can be particularly useful for stamps you use regularly, such as approval signatures, company logos, or project-specific marks.

A tip to maintain uniformity in documentation is to share your custom stamps with your team. By doing so, everyone can use the same set of stamps, which is essential for maintaining a standardized and professional appearance across all project documents.
