My clients asking me the possibility to create every time new
documents, just like using text editors like word or others.
My application create a document model based on data inserted in a
form, obviously this is a static document that the user can print.
But the user wants to edit the document inserting, changing text or
whatever else before printing.
Is it possible to do something like this with rails?

Yes, would be the direct answer to your question. That being said you’re
not going to get anywhere with questions like this. It’s not like anyone
here as any interested in designing your app for you.
- Do you have anything specific to ask?
- What have you tried?
- Why would you think it’s obvious that your form submission creates a
static document?
From your abstract description of what your app does, I can think of
many existing apps that do something like that. Any, CMS system does
basically that. Google Docs most certainly does that. So can Rails do
something like that? Of course it can. That doesn’t mean it’s
necessarily easy. I’m quite sure that the development of Google Docs was
quite complex. Rails is not the limiting factor here. The limiting
factor is the imagination and skill of the developer.
