    I did a couple of math examples and it does actually come out pretty close.

    Good to know

    One other difference is that the Perimeter tool can be dragged to a rectangle, while the Polylength tool cannot.

    If you can’t select them in the markups list, you won’t be able to do much with them, they’ll be embedded within the PDF content.
    I’m with David on this one, ask for a clean set of drawings.

    It should still be able to access the individual files.

    Make a drawing log from the Set or use the index page, that is hyperlinked and you should be good to go

    that’s why I changed the height of one to match the angle. so one is actually 2500 x 621 (or something)

    well that’s odd, it came with a black background, so you can’t see the text

    There’s no substitute for bad drawings.

    We had one set of drawings, on a major project no less, that had text buried on a hidden layer from ACAD.

    The only way I could get automark to read it was to only cover half of the page label with the box.

    Bad drawings suck.

    You might just need to apply the right filters.

    Could be a lot of things though.

    Its great isn’t it?

    I learned most of mine by watching ExcelisFun on YouTube, as well as a couple other Excel people.

    Once you get it written, just record a refresh and attach to a button. Even easier.

    Completely agree with Vince.
    Macros can do a lot, but can be tricky to write properly.
    While Power Query can be a bit tricky to learn, once its done, its fully repeatable.

    As with most things in Revu, there is more beneath the surface.

    Yes, but it comes when you want to update.

    Plus I’m pretty sure you can combine stapled files to make a bigger file
