The export options for a job in Dronedesk allow you to generate a PDF document, create a printable version, or produce a shareable URL. You can export a Job Pack, which includes the risk assessment and method statement, or a custom export, depending on your needs.
Dronedesk also enables you to brand your exports so that your clients or other recipients know the documents are coming from your business.
To customise the export appearance, go to the top-right menu, click Settings, and then choose Document Header. This opens an editor where you can configure how the header of your exported documents will look.
By default, the editor includes placeholders such as the job reference, client reference, and job start date. If you want to include more placeholders, place the cursor where you want the placeholder to appear, then choose the relevant option from the dropdown menu. There are many placeholders available, such as the client name, which you can add as needed.
To further enhance the branding of your exports, you can insert a large image at the beginning of the document, which effectively acts as a cover page. To do this, place the cursor at the very top of the editor, choose Insert Image, and upload your cover image.
The recommended image size is 1570 x 2213 pixels, which fits the layout well. Once inserted, set the image to be 100 percent wide, then click Save.
Next, insert a page break immediately after the image by choosing Insert Page Break. This ensures that the cover image appears on the first page, and the job details begin on the second page.
After saving your changes, return to the job you want to export. For example, if you generate the Job Pack URL, the resulting export will show the cover image on the first page, followed by the job reference, client reference, planned date, and all other details configured via your Job Sections settings.
This setup allows you to create polished, fully branded exports directly from within Dronedesk.
