ptreport

ptreport is a tool that generates reports in the groff typesetting language from Pro Tools sessions, for example to create spotting lists or reports. ptreport uses PTSL to connect directly to Pro Tools, without the need to export text from the session and allowing for enhanced data import.

How to Use

Installing ptreport with pip will install a command-line tool that can be invoked directly from a terminal. The tool will connect to Pro Tools with PTSL and emit groff commands to the standard output. These can be immediately piped to groff(1) for rendering to a device.

$ ptreport | groff -K utf-8 -ms -Tpdf > output.pdf

At this time, the markup emitted by ptreport uses the groff "ms" macro package. Pro Tools clip and track names are read as Unicode, thus the -K utf-8 option should be used.

For more information consult man ptreport.
