How can I make my PDF form a template, so when a user presses save it automatically opens the 'save as' dialogue box instead of overwriting the original form which means it's not blank for the next user?

TIA Alex

On your operating system set the file as read-only.

I recommend you also protect the folder it is in, this provides extra protection against deleting and recreating the file.
