Lighting Report Extract
Extract reported lighting results by room, surface and source page.
What it does
Give Norma a lighting report and the rooms or surfaces to examine. Norma extracts the report’s values and keeps calculation results separate from fixture inventory. Norma does not run a new lighting simulation.

Norma retains each reported metric, unit, surface and room with its table or page reference.
Fixture inventory
Norma records inventory separately so repeated tables are not added together as new fixtures.
Report coverage
Norma distinguishes physical pages from printed labels and identifies missing or unreadable portions of the report.
Workflow
