Exporting & Printing

Export your drawing with its visible takeoff overlays as a multi-page PDF, print selected sheets to a PDF, or export quantities to Excel. Estimate proposals are exported separately, from Export Proposal in the Summary view of the Estimates tab (PDF, Excel, or CSV).

Steps

  1. PDF: click the download icon in the toolbar ("Export PDF (all sheets)"). Each sheet is rendered with its overlays and the PDF downloads automatically.
  2. Print: click the print icon to download a PDF of the current sheet. Choose whether to include takeoffs and annotations, and color or grayscale. To print several sheets, check them in the Overview and click Print there.
  3. Excel: click the spreadsheet icon ("Export to Excel") to download a formatted .xlsx of your takeoff quantities, grouped by type (Areas, Linear, Counts, and Volume) with a subtotal for each group and totals for the whole drawing set.

Notes

  • •Hidden takeoffs (toggled off with the eye icon) are left out of the PDF export. Hidden sheets are still included.
  • •The Excel export includes every takeoff, hidden or not, and is disabled when the project has no takeoffs yet.
