PDF Reports
Build a project report from ready-made sections (site, massing, areas, sun, climate, carbon, zoning) and download it as a PDF.
Projected writes a complete, print-ready A4 landscape report of your project: maps, model views, site plans, tables and charts. You choose the sections and their order.
Creating a report
- Open Reports from the left rail.
- Click Create New Report.
- Give the report a name, for example “Planning pre-application”.
- Pick a Quick Start preset, or build your own layout:
- drag sections from Available Sections into the Report Layout, or click Add to report,
- drag sections to reorder them, and remove the ones you don’t need.
- Click Generate Report.

Generation takes a few seconds: Projected renders the model views, fetches the maps, lays out the PDF and saves it to the project. When it’s done, click Download PDF.
Note: The report captures the project as it is when you generate it. Generate a new report after changing the design.
