Translate Layer Names and Properties
With the Layer Translator, you can change a drawing’s layers to match layer
standards you set.
Convert Layers to Established Drawing
Standards
Using the Layer Translator, you can convert layers in one drawing to
standards you define. For example, if you receive a drawing from a company
that does not follow your company’s layer conventions, you can convert the
drawing’s layer names and properties to your company’s standards. You can
map layers in the drawing you are currently working on to different layers in
another drawing or standards file, and then convert the current layers using
those mappings. If the drawings contain layers of the same name, the Layer
Translator can automatically change the properties of the current layers to
match those in the other layers.
You can save your layer translation mappings in a file and reuse them with
other drawings.
