- which sections to check first
- how to read the timeline and readiness details
- what to review before you move to attachments or another student
This guide shows you how to read a student PDF inside a Superadjust evidence pack. A student PDF matters because it gives you the per-student detail behind the export, including student context, evidence timeline, readiness labels, and any pack-integrity references that connect the file back to the export.
Context: Each student PDF sits inside 1_Student_Pages/ in the ZIP export. It is designed to be self-contained, so a reviewer can understand the student record and exported evidence without needing to open the manifest first.
Step 1: Open the right student PDF
Start by matching the PDF to the student listed in the summary report. This helps you stay anchored to the export scope and reporting window before you review the student-level detail.
- 1.Open the ZIP export and go to 1_Student_Pages/.
- 2.Select the PDF for the student you want to review.
- 3.Check that the student matches the name and context shown in the summary report.
- 4.Use the summary report first if you need to confirm that the student was meant to be included.
Step 2: Read the student context and evidence detail
The student PDF is built from student data, exported evidence, and cached readiness values. Read the top of the PDF first, then move through the evidence and readiness sections in order.
Student PDF showing identity, NCCD details, readiness label, evidence timeline, and pack integrity
- 1.Check the student identity and class information.
- 2.Check the year level and NCCD category.
- 3.Review the adjustment level where it is available.
- 4.Read the evidence timeline for the selected reporting window.
- 5.Check the readiness labels shown in the PDF.
PDF sections explained
Use this table to understand what each section of the student PDF contains.
| Section | What it contains |
|---|---|
| Student Identity | Name, year level, class, and adjustment level badge. |
| NCCD Details | Disability category and diagnosis status (confirmed, imputed, or prefer not to say). |
| Readiness at Export | The cached readiness label captured when the pack was generated. |
| Evidence Timeline | Chronological list of evidence entries within the export window, showing date, pillar, type, and preview. |
| Pack Integrity | Pack ID that links back to manifest.json and audit_hash.txt for verification. |
Step 3: Use the PDF to answer student-level questions
A student PDF is the best place to answer detailed questions about one student in the export. It shows which evidence exists, how it sits inside the selected window, and whether the student appears on track in the exported pack.
- 1.Use the timeline to see what evidence sits inside the export window.
- 2.Use the readiness labels to understand how the student looked at export time.
- 3.Check whether the evidence appears complete enough for your review purpose.
- 4.If attachments were included, move next to the matching folder in 2_Attachments/.
- 5.If you need pack verification, use the pack-integrity section together with manifest.json and audit_hash.txt.
The student PDF turns the export from a high-level pack into a usable student record. It helps you review one student at a time, see the exported evidence in context, and understand how the student was represented when the pack was generated.
Common mistake
Don't treat it as a full record: The most common mistake is treating the student PDF as a standalone school record without checking the reporting window first. The PDF reflects the selected export window, not every piece of evidence ever logged for that student.
What to do next
Once you have checked the student PDF, review any matching attachments for that student or move back to the summary report to continue through the rest of the pack. If you need to verify the pack itself, check manifest.json and audit_hash.txt next.
