The aim of the tools presented in the paper is to help the knowledge engineer with his tedious work. The first tool a2doc generates human readable documentation of an existing knowledge base. The second tool, the more complex one, creates the pieces of information from the text base and the appropriate ontology. The generated items can be then imported into the knowledge base. Both tools save time of the knowledge engineers.

Keywords: knowledge-based systems, knowledge acquisition, knowledge tool, knowledge engineering.
