Operators reading a printed nest report could not see where the machine
clamps sit or which ones must be pulled before cutting, and had no way to
measure positions off the layout. Plate diagrams now draw active clamps as
hatched rectangles (labels keep clear of them) and removed rail clamps as
dashed, crossed-out rectangles over the parts, with a legend line only on
plates that have clamps. A horizontal ruler below and a vertical ruler left
of the drawing read the sheet's plate coordinates in job units; the
diagram is fitted in two passes so the ruler bands match their numbers,
and part labels never enter them. Rulers draw as their own content stream
so the diagram stream holds only the sheet and what is on it.

The shop needs each sheet's weight for handling, so the summary's plates
table gains a Sheet weight column: one full sheet from its area, the nest
thickness and the nest (or catalog) density. A drawing's own material is
not used, since it doesn't say what the stock is; with no density the
column is left out.
Plates with copies now put the total cut time (and total weight) on a
second line instead of after a comma, which wrapped mid-phrase.

Nest reports showed "-" for every part weight on N26-295 because the nest and
its drawings store Stainless Steel 310 with density 0: materials are picked by
name and grade, and nothing copies a density onto them. The densities live in
the machine material defaults, and for this nest not even on its own machine
(CL-980 lists only 304; 310 is on CI FIBER 4020).
The desktop now resolves a catalog density before capturing the report: the
nest machine's exact name and grade, any machine's exact name and grade, then
the same material name. A density stored on the nest still wins, and the
drawing's own material stays the last fallback.

The summary's parts table squeezed each thumbnail into a 62 pt column and
had no room for the size and weight the shop asks for. Each drawing is now
a card, four to a row: ID, a larger thumbnail, name, bounding-box size,
weight each and for all nested copies, required/nested counts and plates.
A shortage or extra is a badge beside the ID (SHORT in red) so it stays
easy to spot without a column to scan.
Weight is net area x nest thickness x material density, read as lb/in^3
like the machine material defaults; millimeter jobs report kilograms. A
nest without thickness or density shows "-" and a note saying what is
missing, never a zero weight.

Capture had grown to one 120-line method mixing plate validation, part
placement counting and drawing reconciliation, with a local function
holding the ID state. Separate those steps and move ID assignment into a
small registry so each rule can be read on its own. Validation order and
the snapshot are unchanged.

The nest report PDF gains an estimated cut time: the job total on the
summary, an Est. cut time column in the plates table, and per-plate and
all-copies times on each plate page. Times come from the cut simulation
with the settings last used in Calculate Cut Time, plus clamp removal.

Add OpenNest.Reporting (net8.0, PDFsharp-MigraDoc 6.2.4) with a detached
report snapshot and a PDF writer for an empty/demand-only job or a single
plate layout: Letter portrait summary with vector part thumbnails and a
landscape plate page with a vector sheet diagram, both with Page X of Y.
- Snapshot uses reference identity for document-local R### IDs, recounts
nested quantities from placements x copies with checked wide integers,
excludes cutoffs from accounting, and retains no live domain objects.
- Geometry keeps Cut/Display material paths, drops rapid/scribe/lead paths,
preserves native arcs, holes and intentional tab gaps, and rejects
malformed programs with plate/part identification.
- Open contours and cutoffs are stroked per contour so PDFsharp cannot join
a tab gap to the next contour.
- Bundled DejaVu Sans via a custom resolver (including MigraDoc's error
font); unsupported text fails with the field and code point.
- Layouts beyond this slice (multiple plates, page overflow, labels that
do not fit) fail with NotSupportedException before the destination is
replaced; output is rendered to a temporary sibling and moved atomically.
