Automatic Configuration of Structured Graphical Documents: A Case Study in the Domain of Electroplating Lines

In this paper we present a method for preparation of technical drawings in the domain of electroplating lines. We treat the method as the combination of two tasks: configuration and document preparation. The proposed method combines the basic concepts of these domains: generic coding introduced in document preparation task and component oriented approach used in the configuration task. We show how both concepts are implemented in our configurator SyntheCAD.
