PDF report generator for teststand

[MichaelMC]

Why not make it possible for Teststand to generate reports in PDF format?

It would make it a lot easier to send a testreport of a specific board to people not connected to the actual tester.

Today we use XML but this requires the stylesheet to be present on the readers pc.

Graphs are also not showing correct unless you do a manual setup of the settings in Internet Explore.

PDF would make my life a lot simpler

We have had this requirement from several of our customers so a few years ago we created a custom process model with PDF reporting capability (now also ATML and csv). It is compatible with TestStand 4.1 and later.

Here is an example model plugin that automatically converts reports to PDF:
