Bluebeam Revu 21.8 Update

Bluebeam Revu 21 has just received a new update! Version 21.8 is here so, let’s see what’s in store for us with this latest release!

Revu 21.8

2 December 2025

What’s New

  • Round Corners: Round one or more corners for Polygon and Polyline markups.
  • Studio Project Search now includes markup results per file which link directly to their location.
  • Delete a whole word when editing text markups in Revu by pressing Ctrl+Backspace.

Task Link

Task Link is an integration between Bluebeam Revu and GoCanvas that empowers office users to dispatch tasks to field teams and access real-time field updates within Revu. It requires a paid Bluebeam and GoCanvas Lite subscription or above. It is available for all global regions. GoCanvas supports only US-EN language.

  • Drop a markup on the drawing, assign a GoCanvas mobile form, and send it straight to your field team.
  • Your field team will get notified to complete the form in the GoCanvas app with everything they need—task details, reference Revu PDF drawings, and a due date.
  • The completed form shows up in Revu, linked right to the markup, so your office team always has the latest updates from the field.

What’s Fixed

  • When placing an Area Measurement that has a highlighted fill, it appears opaque and blocks the view of the document when trying to place the Markup.
  • Issue with some Vitrium locked files not opening in Revu.
  • When opening a PDF that is an Outlook attachment, the screen is blank on ARM64 computers.
  • Polygonal Area measurements disappear at certain angles during placement.
  • Output folder in Stapler wizard always reverts back to Custom Folder and default system save path.
  • Clicking a link in a file continually launches new web tabs.
  • When printing from AutoCAD to the Bluebeam PDF Printer, the page is rotated 90 degrees.
  • Some links open within a web tab instead of being opened as a PDF file.
  • Cannot copy under Properties, Project Path links in Projects or Original Location in Studio Sessions.
  • Files containing JavaScript to submit Form do not work.
  • Additional improvements and fixes.
