First part – what EA creates is a LinkedDocument attached to the <>Artifact, which eaDocX will happily print. Beware of putting too much fancy formatting into LDs, as they tend to mess-up Word documents, as Word can’t tell the difference between EA-generated text and LD text.
Second part: We deliberately don’t have such a ’empty document’ mechanism. This is because in my ‘proper’ job as a BA, we always store this kind of boilerplate text (if that’s what you mean) in their own EA Packages, with any diagrams saved as EA diagrams.
That way, the text is available to any model reader, and any eaDocX document. This is great for things like ‘Introduction to the Project’, which is a fairly common thing to include in a document. We also keep our model standards in EA, also as EA words & diagrams, and that also is printable. Doing things this way also avoids formatting problems.
‘hope the answers your question…
