ForgeDiff exports the same inspection result in four forms:
- PDF for signed or archived customer-facing inspection evidence;
- DOCX for editable internal and customer reports;
- PNG for a portable annotated comparison;
- JSON for traceability, automation, and downstream quality systems.
A report can include:
- verdict and comparison mode;
- source image labels;
- similarity, assembly identity, confidence, and elapsed time;
- annotated inspection overview;
- numbered findings with side, coordinates, size, and explanation;
- verified common areas and geometric evidence;
- algorithm configuration and measured diagnostic values;
- limitations and human-review notice.
The report generator consumes ComparisonResult directly. This design keeps the
evidence shown in the desktop interface consistent with the exported document and
technical JSON.
