Export a floor plan as PDF

🗺️ Turn any floor into an A3 PDF drawing, to scale, with the assets, work orders and room names you choose.

Export a floor

  1. Open the building and the floor. Click the three dots in the toolbar at the bottom of the map and choose PDF export.

  2. Under Map view, choose Floor plan for this floor, All floor plans for one page per floor, or Current view for the floor plan exactly as it is on your screen, angle and all.

  3. Under Scale options, keep Fixed architectural scale and pick one, 1:50, 1:100 and so on, or choose Scale to fit the page.

  4. Choose what to include. Include markers: assets, work requests, work orders. Include room labels. Include outdoor map, when the building has an address on the map. Include map layers, when a layer is coloring the map; the legend then lists each color with a count.

  5. Click Export. The PDF downloads to your computer.

The markers follow the filters on the Assets and Work orders topics. Filter the list first and the drawing shows only those.

What the PDF contains

An A3 page in landscape with the floor plan, a header with site, building, floor, address and scale, your organization's logo when one is set, and a north arrow. The footer says who exported it and when. The file is named vyer-pdf-export followed by the date and time.

Export one asset, work order or area

Open the item and choose Export in its three-dot menu. The drawing is centered on the item, and the dialog offers what fits it: for an asset, Include Room ID, Export connected work orders and Include images; for a work order, Export connected assets, Include images and, for a work request, Include reporter contact details; for an area, Include data fields, Exclude measured area and Include room names for all rooms or only the area's. See Create and edit areas.

On the Areas topic, PDF export in the toolbar skips the dialog and exports the floor with every area marked and a legend of their sizes.

Good to know

  • The PDF is made in your browser, so a floor with many markers takes a moment. Up to 1,000 assets and 1,000 work orders are drawn.

  • There is no paper size or orientation to choose. Every export is A3 landscape.

If it doesn't work

There is no PDF export in the menu

The export needs a floor plan. Open a building; the outdoor map alone cannot be exported.

Export on an area is grayed out

The PDF is made from one floor. Select a floor that is part of the area.
