Working with DocViewer

DocViewer is a web application that allows you to view and save a requirements file as rendered through the DocViewer engine.
Note:
  • Before working with DocViewer, you must configure Requirements Editor to work with it. For more information, refer to Configuring for DocViewer Integration.
  • For details in working with the DocViewer interface, refer to the DocViewer User Guide.
  • DocViewer can only be intialized if a requirements file is open in Requirements Editor.
