The Source Spectrum Evidence Plot section of a report displays a source spectrum plot for each component in the sample. This section appears only if you select the Component Source of Evidence Plots option on the Parameters > Report page in the processing method editing wizard. The plot shows the peaks or isotopic clusters in the scan that are associated with a particular component. See View the source spectra.
