A GIA certificate does not include the crown or pavilion angles. How does one get this information if they are looking at a GIA diamond?

I had requested these angles for a GIA diamond I saw on a online site and within a short time had the answer. But, how was the answer obtained if it is not on the certificate?

Diamonds are measured using a machine like a Sarin- which will give approximate angles

A sarin machine (www.sarin.com) or megascope(www.ogitech.com) will analyze the Cut parameters of the diamond for you.
