Speaking of file storage, you can store any file type either in application resources (app-wide, such as documentation) or in file attachment columns (these are bound to particular record, could be scanned agreement for customer for example).

Speaking of document generation, every view contains Export button that dumps the data to CSV or Excel file. For documents choose Word format mainly because of it's market share. Backgrounds for this decision you can find in an Support for server-side document generation idea.

File attachment columns are fine when the doc is bound to a single record but that doesn't help when you want to email the same static documentation every time (as a PDF). Links via resources are an option but would be nice to have the ability to attach a PDF and other types fo files.
