The <strong>Design Report<\/strong> in PCB-Investigator brings that information together in a structured overview of the most important PCB parameters. The result is less manual follow-up and a clearer technical foundation for everyone involved.<\/p>\n<p>For projects with multiple stakeholders, that matters. A consistent report helps engineering, fabrication, and production stay aligned and reduces the friction that usually comes from missing context or repeated questions.<\/p>\n<h2>Automatically generated PCB data<\/h2>\n<p>The Design Report captures the key board information automatically and creates an editable Word document. That makes it easy to adapt the report to company-specific formats or add additional details later in the process.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Number of layers<\/li>\n<li>Net names<\/li>\n<li>Components and pins<\/li>\n<li>Layer stack information<\/li>\n<li>Board size with outline sketch<\/li>\n<li>Number of drills and smallest drill size<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It can also be enriched with results from other analyses, such as Component Analysis. That turns the report into a practical documentation base for internal review, handoff, and production communication.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>A good PCB report does more than document data. It shortens decisions, reduces questions, and improves collaboration across disciplines.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h2>Built for flexible documentation workflows<\/h2>\n<p>Because the report is generated as a <strong>Word document<\/strong>, it can be edited after creation and exported as <strong>RTF<\/strong> when needed. That flexibility makes it easy to fit into different documentation standards and engineering workflows.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to streamline PCB documentation and share technical board data in a cleaner, more consistent way, take a closer look at the Design Report in PCB-Investigator. It is a practical way to reduce overhead and keep projects moving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why a PCB Design Report matters In PCB development, critical information is often scattered across layout data, analysis results, manufacturing notes, and team communication.
