Force Preview to reload a document

For those of us who are hard-of-thinking, can you be even more explicit?

In that System Preference, there's a single `Menu Title' field. I tried entering "File Revert" (without the quotes), and "'File' 'Revert'", and "File/Revert", but none seem to make any difference, when bound to Control-Command-R. The field has as `explanation' the text `Enter the exact name of the menu command you want to add' which, like AppleScript, gives off an air of being friendly without being in the least bit informative.

Separately, Command-Shift-R appears to be already taken, by the View/Automatically Resize command. Will a System Preference binding of the same keystroke override that?

Thanks for pointers
