Export to PDF
A printable, fully expanded BOM. Use it for design reviews, supplier packs and anything that needs to be filed.
Exporting
- Select Export in the toolbar.
- The PDF downloads directly.
It exports whatever is on screen.
- In the Committed Area that means the release currently chosen in the version picker, so pick an older release first if that is the one you want.
- In the Staging Area it exports the current draft.
23-pdf-export.webpThe first page of an exported BOM PDF.
What is in it
- The product's name, part number, version and revision.
- Whether it is a staged draft or a released BOM, marked clearly.
- The full structure, every level expanded, in line-number order.
- Quantity, extended quantity, unit cost and extended cost per line.
- Line count, part count, depth, and total cost.
The page is landscape, so the cost columns fit without wrapping.
Fully expanded, always
The PDF ignores whatever depth you have open on screen and prints the whole tree. A partial BOM in a supplier pack causes more trouble than a long one.
Naming
Files are named so a folder of them sorts sensibly:
mainboard-assembly-bom-v1.4.0-20260813.pdf
control-module-bom-staged-20260813.pdf
Product name, then the version (or staged for a draft), then the date.
Staged exports are marked
A PDF of a draft is stamped as staged on every page. It is useful for a review meeting, but it is not a released document and it says so.
