# Create and save a matter document

> Start a blank document from a case and reopen your saved work.

Create a blank document when you want to write directly in Presolve and keep the draft connected to a matter.

Before you start, open the correct case from [My Cases](https://attorney.dearlegal.com/dashboard/cases). Check the case name and number.

## Start the document

1. Open the matter's **Documents** area. In a workspace with side navigation, expand **Case Assets**, then select **Documents**.
2. Select **New document**.
3. In **New Draft**, select **Blank document**.
4. If you return to the document list, select the new **Untitled document** row to open it.

## Write and save

1. Replace **Untitled document** at the top with a descriptive title.
2. Click the page and enter your text.
3. Use the toolbar for headings, emphasis, lists, font, spacing, and alignment.
4. Select **Save** and wait for **Saved** beside the title.
5. Return to the matter's Documents area and reopen the draft to check your work.

</Frame>

## Find text or review edits

Use **Find and replace** to locate wording in the document. **Suggest** turns on tracked suggestions, and **Suggestions** opens the review controls. Check the current mode before editing so your changes are recorded in the way you intend.

If your latest change is missing, check that **Saved** appeared before you left the editor and that you reopened the correct document.

Saving a draft stores your work in Presolve. It does not send it to a recipient or start a signature request. Related: [Organize files in Library](/docs/help/documents/library).
