You can create occurrence copies and definition copies of free-form texts.
Occurrence copies represent identical free-form text. If you change one of the occurrences all other occurrences of the free-form text will change, as well.
Definition copies have the attribute values of the copied free-form text. If you change definition copies of a free-form text, all others will remain unchanged.
