In Doc-O-Matic you can have one or more configurations for each output format. The default is one configuration for each output format. All configurations and paths to output directories are listed in the Project Manager. In a configuration all output specific options such as AutoDoc options and output format specific options for the set output format are saved. You can change output related options separately for all configurations and create multiple versions of your documentation.
All general options of your project such as options on the General Settings tab of the Settings and topic hierarchy information are stored in the project file. If you change these settings, changes apply to all configurations.
There can be several configurations for each output format. You can create a configuration for an internal documentation and a configuration for the documentation for your customer at the same time.
