You can generate documents
in any of the four output types
that IBM® Rational® Rhapsody® ReporterPLUS supports: Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Word, HTML, RTF,
and text.
Note: If
you are generating reports in Linux and
receive an error, you
can correct this problem by starting IBM Rational Rhapsody and
exiting it. Then return to ReporterPLUS to generate the reports.
You can use the same template for all document types.
However, there are differences among the output formats that affect
the way the document looks and, in some cases, even the document content.
As you generate different types of documents, note these differences.
You can use the GetStarted.tpl and Dishwasher.rpy to
generate Microsoft PowerPoint,
Word, and HTML documents.
Note: You can also generate
a text document from the GetStarted template by selecting Text
File in the Generate Document dialog box. However, because
the text format does not support graphics, you see only the diagram
names and class information.
Note: To generate
a document, you must have a working model and a Rational Rhapsody ReporterPLUS template
loaded in Rational Rhapsody.
