EDRMedeso Report Generator V190.8 - 3 -
1. Introduction This project demonstrates the use of the ACT tool Report Generator for an ANSYS Mechanical
project.
This user guide is created entirely from this tool based on the Workbench project
"ReportGenerator_V190.8.wbpj" without any additional editing except for some figure cropping or
additional page break. A copy of the project archive file is included in the extension installation
package.
This chapter shows the global settings in Mechanical for figure size and quality how to use the
toolbar. The rest of the document is showing how to use Comments, Figures and Images in the
project.
To create a report using the Report Generator first set up the analysis project as usual. The order of
the report will always be Thermal before Structural before Modal etc. independent of the model tree
order.
The Report Generator uses the global settings for figures defined in Mechanical options for "Report"
and "Graphics", see figures below.
The "Chart" and "Graphics" width and height should be defined based on the Word template page
width. Word uses 96 dpi (or 3.78 dpmm) so 640 pixels will give a 169 mm wide image (640/3.78).
To enhance the picture quality it is recommended to use Graphics Resolution "Enhanced Print
Quality (2:1). To set the background white change the setting for "Background" in Graphics options.
The Report Generator toolbar has a number of buttons used to prepare the report.
"Default Comments" will initiate the Report Generator and create the needed standard comments
and the tag "Report" used to select items to be included in the report. It may also perform renaming
of objects according to the report template definition.
"Tag Object Report" will tag the selected objects to be included in the report. You may un-tag an
object from the standard "Tags" window.
"New Comments" will add a Comment to the selected objects and tag them to be included in the
report.
"New Figures" will add a Figure to the selected objects and tag them to be included in the report.
"New Images" will take a snapshot of the selected objects, save it to "user_files", add as a "Static
Image" and tag them to be included in the report.
"Create Report" will create, open and save the report in the "user_files" folder of the project.
"Update Figures" will export all Figures of the project to the folder "ReportName_images" in the
"user_files" folder of the project. This button can also be used to update the images in the report in
case you change the view or contour bar etc. and don't want to lose any edits done in Word after the
export. Note: this will only work if you are using the "docx" Word document format.

EDRMedeso Report Generator V190.8 - 4 -
"Insert Appendix" will insert a list of the available appendix files. Any .html or .htm file in the
"user_files" folder will be included in the list if the name is different than the report name. You may
remove or re-order the items in the list.
"Help" will open the help documentation report.
"Open preference File" will open the preference file for editing formatting options or selecting
Word template file.
The default comments are used to transfer information to Word. Don't change the name of these
comments. Fill in "Author", "Subject" and "Prepared for" in the project details by clicking on the
project folder in the model tree. Also rename the project as this will be the title of the Word report.
ReportName: File name of Word document, e.g. "ReportGeneratorHelp.docx". Note: Using ".doc"
will create a word document where the pictures are saved in the document and using ".docx" will use
linked images. A ".docx" document can be saved as a pdf to include the pictures in the document or
by breaking the links to all pictures from the menu "File>Edit Links to Files".
Introduction: Text for first section of the report. Note: Adding a "Image from File..." and include
"Introduction" in the image name will place the image in the "Introduction" section of the report.
Conclusions: Text for the final section of the report.

2.1. Geometry
2.1.1. General information
When using a comment with the standard name "Comment" this will not give a heading in the report.
By setting a name of the comment you will get a heading with heading level one level below the
parent object.
All parts that are tagged will be included in the part list summary. To avoid duplicate lines from e.g.
many bolts you may only tag one of the bolts to simplify the list.
You can add "User Defined Graphics Annotations" to set names in the figures.
Figure 4. Pump assembly
2.1.2. Pump Housing
Here you can add a comment to describe the part, add Commands and/or add an image. The image
can be a photo or a detail from the model saved to a file.
The pump housing is an aluminum pressure die cast component.

5.4. Imported Load (A6)
To make pictures from imported load you may take any result object (direct from the
"Imported Load" or from "Thermal") and apply selections, section planes etc. and save figure to file
using "New Static Images". Then insert the image on any object (Image from File...) and tag the
imported image with "Report". The difference betwen ANSYS standard function "Image" and the
Report Generator "New Static Images" is that the former only works for one object at the time with
the current graphic size and background color and the later works for multiple objects and uses the
report settings graphic size and background color. If you delete the "Image" object in the tree the
picture file is still saved in the "user_files".

By grouping result objects you create a section where the group name becomes the heading name.
Grouping results objects (contour, path and probe) of the same type and tagging the group but not the
objects will create a summary table of result details. You may include figures from the result objects
if the "Figure" object is tagged.
