Enhance your workflow in Bluebeam Revu by importing comments and markups from other PDFs directly into your current document. This powerful feature allows you to consolidate feedback from multiple reviewers or integrate annotations from previous versions, streamlining your review process.

How to Import Comments from Other PDFs:

2. Navigate to the File menu.
3. Select Import, then choose Comments from the dropdown.
4. In the dialog box, locate and select the PDF containing the desired comments and markups.

All imported comments will appear in the Markups List, retaining their original properties and metadata.

Benefits of Importing Comments:

Additional Tips:

• Customize the appearance of imported markups by editing their properties to match your document's style.
• If working with large sets of comments, consider using Custom Columns to add metadata for better organization.
