One suggestion was to use a split panel. One panel would have user entered keywords and the other the combined document. When saving the keywords, a script would auto run to do the substitutions and then load the results into the other panel. (well, that is how i interpreted the suggestion)
If your goal is to have them edit a document every 20 seconds, I really can't imagine they'll be doing a lot of editing other than filling in the required fields.
If you plan on having multiple templates, the problem gets more involved and so does the glue code to do the magic of manipulating fields to compute new fields/values.
Back in '88 I worked for a company that used something called Dataflex to generate input forms for phone support to use when responding to customers. Ultimately you're probably looking at a custom solution. It is amazing how something can look simple on the outset but quickly becomes much more involved.
