All elements produced after the cutting calculation can be printed out for use in the workshop (see Printing a cutting diagram section in user guide for details), or for use when drawing up quotations or invoices. The cutting list can also bes exported in text or Excel format, along with all cutting plan data for re-use in quotation/invoicing applications.
