File Formats

Donum reports can be exported and shared in multiple formats. Each format has different trade-offs between portability, fidelity, and feature support. The native .dnm format is the only lossless, fully reversible format — all others are one-way renders.

.dnm

Native Donum Archive

Recommended

The native, portable format for Donum reports. A ZIP archive containing structured JSON — layout, theme, data schema, audit log, permissions, cadence, and version history. Everything your report will ever need, in one file.

PDF

Universal Static Export

A fixed-layout print-ready document. Perfect for delivery to recipients who need a static snapshot. No live data, no interactivity — just pixels on a page.

PPTX

PowerPoint Presentation

Export slides for use in PowerPoint or Google Slides. Each report page becomes a slide. Partial fidelity — complex chart tiles may be rasterized.

JSON Schema

Raw Machine-Readable Schema

The raw JSON Schema definitions for all .dnm internal files. Use this for validation, code generation, or integrating the .dnm format into your own toolchain.
