One report for all critical PCB data

In PCB development and manufacturing, the quality of documentation is just as important as the quality of the design itself. The Design Report plug-in in PCB-Investigator automatically creates a clear overview of the most important board parameters.

This is especially valuable when multiple teams are involved. Instead of collecting technical details manually and answering the same questions repeatedly, you get a structured report that supports design reviews, manufacturing preparation, and smooth collaboration.

What the Design Report includes

The plug-in automatically generates a practical set of PCB data and can be extended with results from other analyses, such as component analysis.

  • Number of layers
  • Net names and connectivity
  • Components and pins
  • Layer structure information
  • Board size with an outline sketch
  • Number of drills and smallest drill size

Because the report is created as a Word document, it can be edited later with company details, project notes, or additional context. It can also be exported as RTF, which makes it easy to adapt to different internal or external workflows.

A good design report does more than document data. It helps engineering teams communicate faster and with fewer errors.

Built for practical engineering workflows

Whether you are preparing a handoff for manufacturing, supporting a design review, or aligning stakeholders across departments, a structured report saves time and improves clarity.
