Business Needs and Requirements

Save Pdf Draft feature

Add ability for operator to "save work". Common case: operator selects pdf; clicks "show template"; edits some info; get's distracted; opens some other CT, etc; opens that CT again - all edits from pdf template is gone. We need to be able to save and keep last changes to template for every doc.

Show to client

This must be editable at any time
