What it can do

Reconstructs rooms from DXF or converted DWG drawings and inspects PDF pages with text and word positions.
Looks up rows in your own copy of UNE-EN 12464-1, estimates luminaire counts, lays out grids and writes STF.
Imports STF into DIALux, sets the site, assigns IES layouts, calculates and saves a new EVO file.
Starts a dedicated DIALux process with an in-process bridge to call its objects, export views and write PDF reports with the original templates.

Limitations

Relies on private, build-specific DIALux interfaces; other DIALux versions need new compatibility work.
The full native build needs .NET 8 and the matching DIALux install on Windows x64.
STF can't hold storey elevations, marginal zones, doors or windows; those need manual setup.
