In this Documents guide we will hand multiple guidelines and possible solutions to consider for preparing your documents solution and modelling a readable and maintainable document. General documentation on Blueriq Documents and the elements it can contain (content items for example) can be found in the documentation Documents and Text and styling.
Who is it for?
This Documents guide is meant for business engineers. The main focus is on preparing and modelling a document (e.g. a pdf or word document) using Blueriq Documents. Note: it is possible to create documents using Blueriq Pages, however this method is less common and requires more actions both in Blueriq as in the stylesheets responsible for the document’s layout.
Organization of this guide
This guide is organized in three parts:
The first part focuses on the solution as a whole, for example, do you need one document as an application report or a decoupled document street? The second part focuses on the preparation before you start modelling your document and the final part provides best practices and guidelines to create a readable and maintainable document model.
Documents visual
Modeling documents in Blueriq means modeling the contents of the document itself, the logic that determines when a certain document part is applicable and adding elements that determines its look and feel.
This visual does not aim to be complete, but rather to provide insight.
