SAR Technology: 'Incident Commander Pro' Software

Creating PDF Reports 
with 'Incident Commander Pro'

ICS 204 Assignment Form - saved as a PDF document

The 'Incident Commander Pro' software provide a number of ways to create reports and share information. In addition to creating hard copy printed reports information may also be exported to text files (.txt), Excel spreadsheets (.xls) and database files (.dbf). These electronic data formats make it easy to share 'Incident Commander Pro' information with other applications. 

A convenient new way to share this information is to print reports directly to the PDF (Portable Document File) format. This creates output to a PDF file that is an exact, formatted copy of the original report form. These PDF files (.pdf) may be printed immediately from the 'Incident Commander Pro' Print menu and saved as a convenient form of data backup or for sharing with other applications.

Print Report - Select the PDF Print Driver

To create these reports a PDF print driver must first be installed on the computer. These inexpensive print drivers may be downloaded from many sources, such as PDF995 (very fast) and PDF Factory. Once installed the PDF printer driver appears in the Print Setup menu.

Simply select the PDF printer driver as the current printer and then print any 'Incident Commander Pro' report.  The fully formatted report will then be saved and printed as a PDF document.

ICS 211 Check-In Personnel Form - printed as a PDF document

ICS 309 Communications Log - printed as a PDF document

On a major incident all of the mission's PDF report files may be saved as permanent data backup and emailed to the responsible authority for comments and review.
