Explanation:
I am not sure about the translation, but they need a document that will be used as a sample and all other documents will be aligned/coordinated after this sample (that's the idea anyway)

I'm not sure about that translation either. Thanks!

disagree  swisstell: this has nothing to do with a draft. It is the text of the proposed law or such to be voted on

design proposal?


Explanation:
a mastercopy that is presented for a decision?


I am guessing. More context would help.

Good guess! Thanks for your help!

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  tramont (X): since the context is advertising, this is the most plausible explanation to me - a design concept or presentation which is going to go the rounds for approval.

agree  Chris Rowson (X): I was thinking much the same as tramont, and considering suggesting "proposal". More context would help.

Need more context!


Explanation:
Notice how you're getting a different answer for everyone who's posting a suggestion: that's because there's not enough context to tell. My first instinct for this item is "voting template." But if you could provide us all with more context, we can all be much more helpful.
