The export dialog status explains missing drawing, quote, or preview conditions.

Check export context

  1. 1

    Open a drawing

    Drawing PDF, image, and print export require an active drawing.

  2. 2

    Open a quote workspace

    BoQ export requires quote context and available rows.

  3. 3

    Check the selected intent

    Choose an export intent that is supported for the current workspace state.

Retry safely

  1. 1

    Refresh preview

    Close and reopen export after the drawing has rendered.

  2. 2

    Use PDF first

    If image output is unavailable, try drawing PDF export for the formal record.

  3. 3

    Contact support

    Include the export intent, drawing name, browser, and any visible error message.
