Wiki¶
-
The Allegra Wiki allows you to share and collaborate with your team members on documents. Wiki documents can be exported to Word documents based on Word templates or exported as PDF documents based on HTML templates.
-
To create a new document, go to the Wiki Navigator and right-click on a workspace or revision node. Then click on “Add Document” or another specific type of document offered.

To create a new document section, go to the Wiki Navigator and right-click on a document or document section node. Then click on “Add Document Section”.

Wiki is not a complete replacement for a word processor. However, it has all the essential functions to create high quality documents.
-
You can manage any document in multiple languages. Through a language selector, you can select the language to be displayed for the entire Wiki.
-
You can embed any item in a document section. This is especially useful when you are working with requirements or test specifications and want to keep the requirements separate from the document with informative text. In addition, you can reuse items in different documents.
-
You can embed attributes of the document or document section in a document text. This allows you to display all metadata of a document, such as agent and state in the document itself.
-
You can allow any or specific users to read and comment on Wiki documents. There are special permissions in the roles/permissions system for this purpose.
-
You can create an MS Word document from a Wiki document with an MS Word template. Also, you can create PDF documents from Wiki documents based on HTML templates.
-
You can create PDF documents from a Wiki document using HTML/FreeMarker templates. This section explains how to convert text and metadata from your Wiki document into PDF documents using an HTML/FreeMarker template.
-
To create a new Word template, use a Word template that you created with the OpenDoPE authoring tool plug-in for MS Word.
-
You can embed the Wiki in a standard website. You can assign your own style sheet to customize the Wiki appearance.
