Use a Template
Starts a drawing based on a drawing template file. Template drawings store
all the settings for a drawing and may also include predefined layers, dimension
styles, and views. Template drawings are distinguished from other drawing
files by the .dwt file extension. They are normally kept in the template directory.
Several template drawings are included with this program. You can make
additional template drawings by changing the extensions of drawing file
names to .dwt. See “Use a Drawing Template File” in the User's Guide.
Select a Template
Lists all DWT files that currently exist in the drawing template file location,
which is specified in the Options dialog box. Select a file to use as a starting
point for your new drawing.
Preview

Browse
Displays the Select a Template File dialog box (a
standard file selection dialog
box
), where you can access template files that are not available in the Select
a Template list.

you can use the Template Options dialog box on page 1686to specify the text
that you want to display here. See the SAVEAS command.
