Doc Gen Including External Document
« on: October 02, 2012, 07:11:49 pm »
I am trying to include a document from outside EA (external on file system) as part of a document generated from the model.

I've tried loads of things with document artifacts within a package and linking it to an file and I have managed to get the filename of the document included in the generated file but not the actual contents of the document.

Any clues please

As the External File option can support files of any type these are not directly supported for printing in the template - there is an option for Hyperlink instead.
If you are still needing to do this inclusion you might look at using the Automation Interface - DocumentGenerator interface. See:
