Generate report#

The Generate Report extension creates a PDF report for the active AEDT design. The generated report includes the design results currently available as plots in AEDT.

How to use#

  1. Open the AEDT project and design whose plots you want to include in the report.

  2. In the Extension Manager, select Generate report.

  3. Enter a report name.

  4. Optionally, select a folder in which to save the PDF. If no folder is selected, the PDF is saved in the design working directory.

  5. Select Open report after generation to open the PDF automatically on Windows.

  6. Click Generate Report.

The extension creates a PDF with a table of contents and a section containing the plots available in the active design.

Output#

The generated file is named <report_name>.pdf. The AEDT message manager reports the full path after the report is created.

API usage example#

The extension is launched from AEDT using the PyAEDT Extension Manager. You can also run it standalone:

python create_report.py
