Diagrams & Reports
PDF Report Generation
Plumbing Booster generates professional PDF reports with company branding, complete calculations, riser diagrams, and project information for engineering submissions.
Introduction
Professional engineering reports are a key deliverable for plumbing design projects. Plumbing Booster generates PDF reports with company logos, project information, complete calculation results, riser diagrams, and advisory notes - suitable for client submissions and code compliance documentation.
Report Contents
PDF reports include:
- **Header**: Company logo (M.Sohsah) and app logo (Plumbing Booster) on every page
- **Project information**: Project name, building name, location, designer, date
- **System structure**: Floors, risers, system type, plumbing code, sizing method
- **Calculation results**: WSFU totals, flow rates, pipe sizes, velocity, pressure analysis
- **Riser diagram**: SVG visualization embedded in the PDF
- **Advisory notes**: Warnings, recommendations, compliance status
- **Footer**: Company branding and page numbers
Reports are generated per module (Domestic Water, Drainage, Pumps, Water Heaters) with module-specific content.
PDF Compatibility
The PDF export system is optimized for compatibility across all major PDF viewers:

SVG-to-PDF conversion uses Chrome-specific optimizations (canvas alpha disabled, clean SVG encoding, FAST compression) for universal compatibility.

2. SVG riser diagram is processed for PDF compatibility
3. Report is generated with jsPDF
4. Company and app logos are embedded
5. File is saved with project name and date
6. Optional "Open after export" checkbox
The export uses a professional loading bar with dynamic status messages for each phase.
