Generating HTML reports
The HTML Generator produces reports in HTML format.
It enables you to generate context-sensitive reports of any or all or the diagrams in a project encyclopedia, for posting and distribution on an intranet or the internet. This is a convenient way to share design information with viewers across the company and across geographic locations.
1 Select Reports > HTML Reports to open the System Architect HTML generator.
2 Leave the path and file name in the Template Home Page at its default value:
C:\Program Files\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\System Architect\SAHtml\Template\default.htm
HTML reports are based on templates that are in a subdirectory of the main System Architect directory:
C:\Program Files\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\System Architect\Template
This directory can be established elsewhere, and you can also open the template files supplied in any html editor, and modify them.
3 For the Publish Home Page, click the Browse button, and then set the Publish Home Page to a path and file named:
C:\Program Files\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\System Architect\Encyclopedias\Samples\temp\default.htm
4 Click the Diagrams tab.
All of the diagrams in the encyclopedia are added to the Diagrams for Generation box. Generating a report for all diagrams takes some time, so select just a few diagrams.
This graphic is described in the surrounding text.
5 Click Publish to generate an HTML report.
System Architect opens the report in your web browser. Click the links in the report to see the information generated. The HTML report automatically gets any information added by changes to USRPROPS.TXT.
