Working with Stamps

The Bluebeam Office Plugin can place any number of Stamps that have been created using the Bluebeam Stamp Editor in PDFs during their creation. These stamps will be visible on the file when it is created.

Once the desired directory has been selected, the stamps it contains will be available in the list below. Select the desired stamp.
  4. To modify the appearance of the stamp in PDFs created using the Bluebeam Office Plugin, use any or all of the following options:
    • Blend Mode acts as a filter for determining which pixels to display.  See Line Merge for a more detailed discussion of the Blend Mode options.
    • Rotation turns the stamp by the number of degrees entered.
    • Opacity determines the transparency of the stamp, measured as a percentage, of the Stamp, where a value of 100% is completely opaque and a value of 0% is completely transparent.
    • Scale resizes the Stamp on the face of the document by the specified percentage.
  5. Position the stamp on the document with the following settings:
    • X and Y coordinates determine where on the page the stamp appears, referenced from the upper-left corner of the page.
    • Page Tab (in Word), Sheet Tab (in Excel), or Slide Tab (in PowerPoint) determines on what page/sheet/slide the stamp appears. Selecting All Pages will place the stamp on each page that is printed.
