DocGen Overview
Automated document generation. For truly time-saving templates.
What does DocGen do?
DocGen uses the existing data in your document management system or content source, merging it with your chosen MS Word templates. It automates the time-consuming document generation process for repetitive documents. Once the document is ready, it can be saved in any format you choose.
With DocGen, you can significantly reduce the copy-paste work and reduce the risk of human error.
The best part? All of this can be done within Microsoft Word. Removing the need for any new tools or training.
What do our customers use DocGen for?
DocGen software is used to automate the generation of repeatable documents including bills, contracts, customer communications, work orders and more.

FAQ
Can you create and/or edit templates with DocShifter?
No. All templates are created and edited within MS Word, for use with DocShifter’s DocGen software. This gives you complete control over the formatting of results
Can I use DocShifter to save the file as PDF or PDF/A after the data was merged with a Microsoft Word template?
Yes. The results can be saved in any compliance level of PDF/A, as well as PDF versions 1.4 – 2.0.
Can DocGen automatically generate Excel documents as well?
Absolutely. It is possible to generate an Excel file from the usual PDF or MS Word results. However, the formatting is designed in MS Word.
Does DocShifter software support optical character recognition (OCR)?
DocShifter allows for fully-automated OCR from any file format supported, which includes all image formats listed in a given RFP. The accuracy of results will depend on the quality of the image being processed via OCR, so the required 90% guarantee cannot be achieved without the quality of the content source also being guaranteed.
Where is DocShifter deployed?
DocShifter’s software can be deployed on-premise or in your cloud (AWS/Azure/Google). On Microsoft Windows or Linux. Either directly onto hardware, using VMWare or in a Docker / Kubernetes infrastructure.
We need the conversion functionality for a one-off conversion project, but are not interested in purchasing conversion software. Can you help?
Absolutely. It’s something we have plenty of experience in. Head over to our Document Conversion Services page to find out how DocShifter’s team can handle all of your document conversion project needs.
