Reports
To create reports the first thing we need to do is to configure the file”./cfg/settings.cfg”. For example:
[report]company = Foo S.Lrecord = 1337unit = Research groupexaminer = B16f00tnotes = Chat maintained between the murderer and the victim If we want to put the logo of our company, we must replace the file ‘./cfg/logo.png’ with one of our choices. In the file ‘./cfg/settings.cfg’, the name of the company or unit must be specified, as well as the assigned registration number, the unit or group we belong to, who the examiner is and we can also specify notes in the report.

To generate the report we must specify the option “English” whether we want the report in English, as well as “ES” whether we want the report in Spanish.
If you specify the “wa.db” database, the phone number will be displayed along with the name. For the report to contains the images, videos, documents… you must copy the “WhatsApp/Media” folder of your phone to the report directory, otherwise, the program will generate thumbnails.
If we want to print the document or create the report in pdf, It recommends in the print option -> scale the view <= 60% or 70%, otherwise, the report will be displayed too large. Whatsapp forensic tool
