Running Reports

PerfectIt 5 allows you to run a variety of reports. The following options are available at the end of PerfectIt’s checking:

Table of Abbreviations: automatically generates a table of abbreviations and acronyms with their definitions. Any acronyms that have not been defined will be listed beneath the table.
Summary of Changes: outputs the issues found using PerfectIt and the changes made.
Compile Text in Comments: copies all the text in comments into one report, making it easier to present a list of changes made to an author.

When you run a report PerfectIt generates a summary which can be copied and pasted into any document.

You can also access the reports from the Reports group in the PerfectIt 5 ribbon. From here you can run the reports described earlier.

There is also one more report that you can access from the ribbon before you run PerfectIt on your document:

Summary of Possible Errors: outputs the potential issues that Perfect finds to a single document in order to quickly get a feel for the number of consistency issues.
