Doc Auto Word Plugin - Overview

Product Filter HighQ Collaborate
Product Area Filter Doc Auto Word Plugin

Using our Microsoft Word plugin, a Site Admin can easily build dynamic document templates without programming; dragging and dropping auto-generated code into existing legal documents.

Site Admins and Content Admins across your organisation can quickly generate standardised, error-free legal documents using automated Word templates, dramatically reducing the time and risk associated with manual drafting. 

You can make the templates available from any HighQ site, trigger the creation of a document automatically within a workflow, kick off an automated review process, add it to a project task and much more. And every document version is automatically managed in HighQ, where it can be easily accessed, shared, tracked, audited and archived. 

Important - if Doc Auto is enabled, any user may download and install the plugin, but only a System or Site Administrator may configure and use the plugin as the Doc Auto Plugin must be associated with a site and an isheet to create automated content (i.e. only a System or Site Administrator may perform this step).

End of support for HighQ Plugins running in Office 2010

As of Oct 13 2020, Microsoft stopped Office 2010 support and as a result, systems running this version of their Office suite have probably not received any further updates, leaving them vulnerable to security risks. 

HighQ endeavours to keep HighQ plug-ins running within MS Office client applications as secure and up-to-date as possible and, as part of this commitment, our plugins use the latest .Net Framework and VSTOR_Redist components provided by Microsoft. Since official support for Office 2010 has ceased, we can no longer guarantee these components work as expected with Office 2010 or older versions and are unable to provide troubleshooting or support for HighQ Office plugins in such cases. 

Specifically, HighQ no longer supports the following plug-ins running in Office 2010: 

  • Windows HighQ Office Plugin.
  • Windows HighQ Doc Auto Plugin for Word.

Please note that Windows 8.1 and earlier releases are no longer supported.
