Overview
This release delivers two major SmartDocs capabilities: importing Microsoft Word documents directly into the platform, and creating traceable cross-references between documents. Alongside these, it includes a broad set of stability and quality improvements across the document editor, the AI authoring and regulatory agents, PDF export, the mobile app, and the platform.
What's New
Import Microsoft Word documents
You can now import Microsoft Word (.docx) files directly into SmartDocs, extending file import beyond PDF. The importer preserves your document's structure, headings, tables, images, and formatting, so bringing existing Word-based manuals into the platform no longer means rebuilding them by hand. This release focused heavily on import fidelity, with document-wide page margins, numbered lists, heading levels, italic text, table header styling, and tab handling now carrying across accurately.
Link related content across documents
You can now create monitored links between SmartDocs, connecting a heading in one document to a related heading in another and optionally including its child sections. If a linked section later changes or breaks, SmartDocs flags it so authors know when referenced content is out of date. This extends the existing regulation-linking capability to work document-to-document, making it easier to keep interrelated manuals consistent.
