    <description>&lt;P&gt;Revit 2016, 2017 &amp;amp; 2018&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I have a linked Arch model with Room Names.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I am working in a MEP model with the Arch model linked into it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I can create spaces and match them to the linked Arch Room Names.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;To BlueBeam PDF, there is an option to export Rooms to Spaces.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The Issue: I can only export rooms to spaces via BlueBeam if it is within the working file in which I am creating the pdfs. It does not work with linked models.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Example: In my MEP model, yes, it shows the room names from the linked model &amp;amp; also successfully created spaces which match the names of the rooms from the linked model. BUT what I am wanting is for the capability of the linked Room Names to export to spaces in BlueBeam pdf. If I can successfully do this, it will make mark-ups very organized and simple.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Another work-around option I am looking for is to make rooms within my MEP model. But I run into a different issue because I cannot get room names in the MEP model to match what is shown in the linked Arch model.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;(There is a way to make spaces in BlueBeam &amp;amp; then those can be used for mark-ups. But when it comes to a large building like for example, a hotel with several rooms, it would be much more convenient if those spaces would automatically compute in BlueBeam without having to recreate them ourselves.)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;I'm wanting Revit to have the capabilities to do this in linked models -just as it does with a regular file so we wouldn't need to recreate the spaces every time.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Let me know if you have any ideas,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;-Virginia&lt;/P&gt;</description>
