PDF Reports
PDF reports let you package projector specifications, photometric data, scene screenshots, and custom branding into a polished document ready for a client presentation or engineering review.
Opening the PDF Report Builder
- Click Export → PDF Report in the toolbar.
- The PDF Report Builder modal opens with a drag-and-drop content canvas.
Report Builder overview
The builder has three sections:
| Section | Description |
|---|---|
| Content canvas | Drag and arrange report blocks (pages, screenshots, tables) |
| Settings panel | Report title, author, paper size, dark/light mode, logo |
| Presets | One-click presets for Standard, Technical, and Executive Summary layouts |
Applying a preset
Click a preset button to instantly configure the content canvas:
| Preset | Contents |
|---|---|
| Standard | Cover page, scene overviews (multiple views), projector inventory, photometric summary, occlusion summary, equipment list |
| Technical | Dense data tables, minimal graphics, optimised for print or engineering PDF handoff |
| Executive Summary | Large visuals, key metrics only, suitable for client presentations |
You can modify the preset layout by adding, removing, or reordering blocks.
Report sections / blocks
| Block | Contents |
|---|---|
| Cover page | Project name, date, author, optional logo |
| Scene overview | Screenshot from a specific saved view or camera object |
| Projector inventory | Name, model, position, rotation, lens settings, brightness |
| Photometric summary | Illuminance range, average, uniformity ratio per surface |
| Occlusion summary | Identified occlusion areas with annotated screenshots |
| Equipment list | Full list of projectors and accessories with pricing |
| Custom text | Free-form text block for notes or custom sections |
Saved views and camera views
Before opening the PDF builder, use Save View in the viewport to capture specific angles. In the builder, screenshot blocks let you choose from:
- Saved views — named viewport snapshots you captured manually
- Camera object views — rendered from any observation or calibration camera in the scene
Logo and branding
In the Settings tab of the PDF builder:
- Click Upload Logo to add your company logo.
- The logo appears on the cover page and optionally in the header of every page.
- Logo images are stored in your platform asset library and persist across projects.
Dark mode / light mode
Toggle Dark Mode in the settings panel. Dark mode uses a dark background matching the Experience Designer workspace aesthetic; light mode produces a white-background document optimised for printing.
Generating the PDF
Click Generate PDF — the report renders and downloads immediately as a .pdf file.
Pro tip: Position the camera to the exact viewpoint you want captured before opening the PDF export dialog. The report uses the current viewport screenshot for any unsaved views.
