Morphology

documenter = document (transparent) = document + er

This is a straightforward suffixal derivation from 'document' with '-er', referring to something that documents automatically.

Etymology

Documenter comes from document, which is built on the old Latin root docere meaning 'to show' or 'to teach', and the ending -er meaning 'one who' or 'thing that'. So a documenter is a device or program that automatically 'shows' or records what happens, creating clear logs and records.
