After IRT Analyzer has generated the report, you, most likely, will want to check it or make additional comments. You should feel free here, as the generated report is a usual Word document and you can use all the Word features. For example, you can type some more text, change formatting, draw an arrow connecting the problem zones at the infrared and visual images and so on.

IRT Analyzer adds its own Thermo Reports toolbar into Microsoft Word. This toolbar is designed to help you performing report creation tasks.
