The rebuild has no VISUAL packet PDF; drawing pages come from M-Files or a hand upload, and "Drawing (no markup)" prints them.

To answer: confirm nothing is missed.


Plan reference: Q35 in docs/PLAN.md (open questions). Answer here; the build takes the default until then.

More detail, since you asked.

The old build had a print option "Original packet PDF". It printed the PDF Clerical uploaded when making the packet (the packet as VISUAL printed it). The rebuild has no uploaded packet PDF: the drawing pages come straight from M-Files (or a hand upload), the BOM and work orders come from the VISUAL feed, and the traveler is generated.

To print the drawing pages without any marks there is "Drawing (no markup)". The traveler, the heat map, the weld map and the data book have their own print options.

The question: does anyone still need to print the original VISUAL packet PDF for something those prints do not cover? Reply "nothing missed" or say what is missing.
