An update is a software patch that delivers bug fixes and other minor improvements within a major version of Revu. For example, going from Revu 20 to Revu 20.1 is considered an update. Custom settings, stamps, profiles, and tool sets are retained when you update Bluebeam Revu. When the update is installed, your settings and files will be automatically copied to the appropriate locations. You can update from within Revu or manually. This article covers both update methods.

This article addresses updating Revu to the latest version. If you're installing Revu for the first time, see the Revu Installation Guide.
