Using Documentor : Producing the Document Segments

Producing the Document Segments

After writing the template and preparing any include files to be included in the document, you are ready to execute the template and generate the unformatted document segments. Each segment file contains information from various sources that you specified through the DGL statements in your template.

The Documentor permits file operations on segments independent of the sources from which they were generated. These operations work in the same way for both for templates and include files.

This section describes how to use the following options in the Document Management dialog box:

New—Generates segments for a new document
Edit—Modifies any of the generated segments
Delete—Deletes a document
Regenerate—Regenerates specific segments of the document without re-executing the entire document.

For information on the Export, Print, and Format options, see Producing the Final Document.
