What document automation options are there?

The three most popular methods of document automation are HotDocs, Word macros, or WordPerfect macros. HotDocs is a popular program because of its simple interface and low learning curve. This makes it an ideal automation system for on-the-go attorneys who don’t have a lot of time to read help manuals. GhostFill is a little more complicated to use than HotDocs but provides powerful automation features. GhostFill is a great choice for someone who wants a powerful tool that integrates seamlessly with Amicus. Word and WordPerfect macros are available. The downsides with Word and WordPerfect macros are that they are limited in their functionality, the design cost can get expensive quickly, and updating the documents can be very difficult.
