Associating PlanetPress Design documents and PReS printer queues

One of the resources stored in a PReS Workflow printer queue is the list of PlanetPress Design documents associated with it. Also stored in the printer queue are the properties of each document associated with the queue.

Note that Workflow printer queues are different from normal printer queues; see PReS Workflow printer queues.
