Edit your templates with Word or Open Office. No report builder tool is required. Docmosis templates are actual documents with markup to allow data to be inserted where you want it. You use existing documents so the work to integrate your data is minimal. The templates are not .dot files.

You control the layout, you control the formatting. Now you don't need expensive developer time to modify the look of your documents and reports. Do it yourself. Own your documents again!

You can let your documentation providers do what they do best - design and produce documents. And you can let your developers do what they do best - extract and manipulate information from your data systems. Docmosis lets you have the best of both worlds - data plus documents equals reports.

Docmosis has a rich set of features that you can use when authoring your template documents. Although most of your reporting and document needs will be met by a simple templates, advanced features allow you to create document reports of impressive complexity.

• Text and image insertion into headers, footers and body
• Conditional inclusion and repetition of any content
• Data from anywhere (Java Objects, text files, database)
• Auto-sizing tables
• Template variables and expressions
• Customized rendering
• Alternating table row colour (Table striping)
• Pagination, Table of Contents and Index updating
• Multiple formats for input and output
• Template merging and reuse

The generated reports will look exactly like your templates. You are already using Word and OpenOffice to layout documents with selected tables, fonts and colours. Now Docmosis allows you to do the same with your reports!

This is because the template is your report. Docmosis takes the template and inserts your specified data into it to create a complete report document that exactly resembles your template. Hours of developer time is not wasted endlessly tweaking the format of your report to meet exacting corporate documentation standards.

You can leverage the effort that your organisation has invested in developing your corporate documentation and reporting standards including colors, logos, fonts, layout, etc, because you are using those same base documents as your templates. Enforce your corporate standards quickly and consistently.
