Exporting

Everything you export is derived live from the document — the CSV files and drawing sheets always match what the tables and canvas show on screen. All exports start from the ☰ file menu (the button in the top-left that shows the current file name) under the Export submenu:

Menu item	Output
Wire list / cut list (CSV)	One row per conductor, with routed lengths
BOM (CSV)	Aggregated parts and wire quantities
Technical drawings (PDF / SVG)…	Drawing sheets — composed or auto-generated — as SVG or vector PDF

Where the file goes depends on how you run the tool: the desktop app opens a native save dialog, Chromium-based browsers use the File System Access save picker, and other browsers fall back to a plain download.

Export the cut list

Choose ☰ → Export → Wire list / cut list (CSV), or open the Cut List pane view and click its ⭳ Export CSV toolbar button — both produce the same file, named <document-name>-cutlist.csv.

Columns:

Column	Contents
Harness	The isolated harness the wire belongs to (see Harness groups)
From, From Pin	Source node and cavity
To, To Pin	Destination node and cavity
Signal	Net name, preferring the from-end’s signal
Gauge	Wire gauge
Color	Resolved color name
Length (<unit>)	Cut length in the document’s length unit
Status	Route status: ok, unrouted, ambiguous, or override

The CSV is strict RFC 4180: fields containing commas or quotes are quoted, and every record ends in CRLF so Excel parses it correctly in all locales. Missing data (an unrouted length, an unnamed color) exports as an empty field rather than the text “undefined”.

Tip

Lengths come from trunk routing in the layout view. If the Status column shows unrouted or ambiguous, connect the affected nodes with trunks first — see Layout.

Export the BOM

Choose ☰ → Export → BOM (CSV), or click ⭳ Export CSV in the BOM pane view. The file is named <document-name>-bom.csv with four columns: Category, Description, Quantity, Unit.

Rows are grouped and sorted by category in this order: device, connector, accessory, contact, plug, terminal, cable, wire, sleeving. Discrete parts are counted in ea; wire, cable, and sleeving quantities are totals in the document’s length unit. Quantities are rounded to two decimals, exactly matching the on-screen BOM panel. Loose wires without a resolvable route length are left out of the wire totals — they aren’t purchasable quantities yet.

Export technical drawings

Choose ☰ → Export → Technical drawings (PDF / SVG)… to open the export dialog. A Format toggle selects PDF (the default) or SVG. The dialog offers two kinds of sheet:

• Composed sheets — the pages you built in the Drawings view, listed by name, plus an All sheets button that packs every page into one PDF. These are full engineering sheets: your chosen paper size, template and title block, placed blocks, to-scale formboards. See Technical drawings for composing them.
• Quick auto-sheets — one-click sheets generated from the document with no setup: a fixed layout-drawing + wire-schedule + title-block composition, for the whole layout or any detected harness. Handy before you’ve authored any sheets.

Either way, every sheet is generated directly from the document data — it is never a screenshot of the canvas.

Composed sheets

Each composed sheet exports exactly as it appears in the Drawings view. SVG saves the selected sheet as one file; PDF produces a true-vector page at the sheet’s real paper size — an ANSI D sheet becomes an ANSI D PDF page, so a 1:1 formboard prints at physical scale (print at 100% / “Actual size” and check the scale bar). All sheets (shown with two or more sheets) writes one PDF with the sheets in tab-strip order.

Quick auto-sheets

Each auto-sheet contains, top to bottom:

1. The layout drawing — nodes at their layout positions scaled to fit the sheet, trunks drawn as dimension lines carrying their lengths, connectors as boxes with their real mating-face glyphs, terminal lugs, splices, junction dots, devices as dashed boxes, and notes as text. Black linework on white, print-ready.
2. The wire schedule — the cut list scoped to what’s drawn, with columns #, From, To, Signal, Ga, Color, and Length, including wire color swatches. Unresolvable lengths print their status in red.
3. A title block — document name, sheet scope (the harness name or Complete layout), connector and wire counts, units, export date, Sheet i / n numbering for multi-sheet packs, and a blank Rev: ______ line you can mark up by hand.

The quick section lists one button per scope:

• Whole layout — everything in the document on a single sheet.
• One button per detected harness (⌁ <name>) — a sheet containing just that isolated bundle and its scoped wire schedule. Per-harness sheets are what a builder actually works from. Harnesses are detected automatically from your trunk topology and can be named — see Harness groups.
• All auto-sheets — PDF only, shown when more than one harness is detected: one PDF with the whole layout as page 1 followed by one page per harness.

If the dialog reports no bundles yet, draw trunks in the layout view first; each isolated harness then gets its own auto-sheet.

Unlike composed sheets, auto-sheets have no paper-size picker: every PDF page uses A4-landscape width, and page height follows the sheet’s own content — a long wire schedule grows the page instead of clipping. Use your print dialog’s scale-to-fit to put a page on real paper.

Format details

PDF output is true vector — not an embedded image — so linework stays crisp at any print size and text remains selectable. The very first PDF export in a session may take a moment longer than later ones while the PDF engine initializes.

SVG saves a single sheet per file, ideal for further editing or embedding; the multi-page packs are PDF-only.

Export file names

File names derive from the document name (lowercased, spaces to dashes):

Export	File name
Composed sheet	<name>-<sheet-name>.svg / .pdf
All composed sheets	<name>-drawings.pdf
Whole layout (auto)	<name>-drawing.svg / .pdf
Single harness (auto)	<name>-<harness-name>.svg / .pdf
All auto-sheets	<name>-drawings.pdf

Note

The cut list and BOM CSVs always cover the whole document. To get a per-harness paper cut list, use a per-harness drawing sheet — its wire schedule is scoped to that harness — or filter the CSV’s Harness column in a spreadsheet.
