Pretty sure it installs it as part of the install package, but I'll take a look. I pretty much skipped over bluebeam 2018, but with new laptop came new license and presumably latest version of .net with latest windows.
I'm kind of used to the completely different interface now. At least its not any slower for me than 2017 was. However I was looking forward to that buttery smoothness they tempted me with.
I fail to believe I need some supercomputer to get equivalent smoothness to Adobe, which renders near perfectly on the same hardware.
