Drawing templates are often project- or company-specific to ensure consistent
styles and settings from one drawing to the next. It is recommended that you
use a drawing template that follows your company’s CAD standards.
For information about creating a custom drawing template, see Use a Template
File to Start a Drawing in the User’s Guide.
