Need: document manager to generate new documents based upon simple templates and placeholders.

-- -- --

This is modified post of an earlier post.

The attached PDF document shows a rough idea sample with the functions of the document manager.

**_Document manager_**

The key idea is to have a simple web based script as a document manager.

**Choose doc type**: A, B, C or D

When choosing a doc type, the templates this type shows up (filters the view)

**Doc Header & footer**

Pre-defined text / html headers and footers to use when the document should be generated

(For instance the footer can be used as a disclaimer, the header can contain logo and text)

**Doc template chooser**

For instance, if the chosen doc-type is A, all the templates made for A are shown.

**Placeholders

**Container with placeholders (business names, website urls, contact phone, contact email, date etc). The place holders can be put in the templates and when for instance the [date place holder] is changed it is changed throughout the whole generated document.

The place holders are used within the templates.

**Templates:

** Simply a predefined text document with predefined text and placeholders.

When the document is generated from the template the placeholders are replaced with the placeholder value.

**Script headers and footers**

The script itself should also include a header and footer to easy customize a nice layout when using the script. Could be solved with two text files that are included when the script is started.

**Generated document**:

Selectable between txt and html formats.

PDF would be nice if possible.

## Platform

**Technical stuff**

Script should be used with Unix/Linux, *nix variants

Work with PHP 4 & 5

Save the settings, templates and contents in a generic way (for instance if mysql - it should be possible to use in all mysql versions, not dialect specific). Database/flat file/XML…?

The script should include a simple installer if using database solution.
