Vitrium's Protected PDF Now Supports Bluebeam

Written by Marcela Ortiz | Jun 25, 2026 6:31:05 PM

We're excited to share a new addition to Vitrium's Protected PDF format: Bluebeam Revu is now a supported software. Vitrium's protected PDFs can be opened directly in Bluebeam, alongside the two solutions you already know, Adobe Acrobat Reader and PDF-XChange Editor

And all 3 PDF apps do not require end users to download any plug-ins to view Vitrium Protected PDFs! 

Bluebeam is especially popular among architecture, engineering, and construction teams, but no matter your industry, if Bluebeam is already part of your workflow, this update is for you.

What Does This Mean For You?

Bluebeam Revu is a professional PDF application designed for technical workflows, especially in construction and engineering. If your organization uses Bluebeam Revu this update means your end users won't need to switch to a different PDF solution just to open protected content. They can continue to use the tool they are already familiar with.

For Vitrium, adding Bluebeam to our list of supported solutions means we can serve these industries without complicating their processes. 

  • Even better fit for technical industries: Organizations that distribute drawings, specifications, standards or technical files now have one more reason to trust that their audience's preferred PDF app is covered
  • Less friction for prospects evaluating Vitrium: Compatibility is often a deciding factor when organizations compare DRM solutions and supporting Bluebeam alongside Adobe Acrobat Reader and PDF-XChange Editor strengthens Vitrium's DRM.
  • No disruption to your workflow: If any of your end users already work with Bluebeam day to day, now they can have a familiar path to opening protected content. No new software, no extra training.  

This update expands the way your content is being accessed without changing how your content is protected. Your DRM policies, watermarks, and access permissions continue to work as efficiently as they do today. 

Latest Updates to Vitrium Protected PDF:

Bluebeam support is just one of the several updates we've rolled out recently. We are committed to provide the best solution that grows along with our clients needs. A few of those updates are: 

  • Vitrium Protected PDFs are now 3x faster to process - End users will receive their Protected PDF much faster than before! 
  • Download PDF with annotations - End users can now choose to include their annotations, comments and form data when downloading a Protected PDF.  
  • Custom links on the Protected PDF landing page - Customers can point their users to the web viewer or any page on their website such as a support page if required.
  • Diagonal watermarks can now be viewed behind text - End users can now easily read your documents while you still retain the ability to display your chosen watermark.  

Protect Your Content. Protect Your Business. 

Every update we release starts with a conversation, a question from a customer, a pattern our team notices or a problem that need solving. Bluebeam support and all improvements happen because of the people using Vitrium everyday. People that trust our solution to protect their digital files and the team working behind the scenes to make it always better. We are proud of these improvements and updates and are even more excited for what is ahead.
