Templates
Templates is a tree folder structure to organise source documents. The idea is that an organization can create new documents ( for example fax, new project document templates, invoices, etc. ) from documents in the templates panel.

After that, optionally rename the document.
If the selected document is a pdf and has some Property_Groups (metadata) associated with it, then a creation wizard popup will appear. Property group fields will be requested in order to combine with the generation of the new PDF. You can create PDF forms with several applications:

After that, optionally rename the document.
