About copying or renaming form layouts
Suppose you've worked hard on customizing an invoice. You've carefully placed all the layout items exactly where you want them, and your logo looks just right. But this layout is for your consulting work, and you want a slightly different layout for the retail side of your business. Do you have to start from scratch?
No. You can copy the layout, and make any minor changes you need.
