File | Save and File | Save as

These are the best ways to save your eaDocX document at any time during the document build. They will save the document, its contents and the document profile, which includes the reference to the model used to create the document.

 

Tip:

The save icon graphic and the Word icon graphicmay be visible in your MS Word window. (They should be blacked out but can sometimes appear).

We recommend you do not save your document using these as some of the EA and eaDocX formatting information may not be retained in your document.  

 

 

 

Tip:

 

Every time you regenerate your document it will be auto saved with the same document name used at the last generation, and hence will over-write your last version.  Whilst you are creating and editing your document contents this may not be a problem.  However, once the document content and format is stable, whenever you have updated your model and wish to produce updated documents this will mean that the previous document version could be lost.

 

We therefore recommend that you save your document with a new name (version/issue no.) before you regenerate it in order to maintain configuration control of your document.
