Note: Custom blocks do not scale correctly if you copy objects to which they are attached (such as doors with door hardware) and paste them in a drawing that has drawing units specified differently. Multi-view blocks: Normally these should be stored as AEC Content or tags, however if you want to use a custom column grid bubble block instead of the default grid bubble, you should store it in the template.

Templates that are intended to be used for sheet sets, especially, should have page setups saved within them to serve as overrides when publishing a sheet set. Title blocks, layouts and page setups: These should be created in templates intended for use as plot sheet templates.Text styles: Include text style definitions to be used for standard notes and dimensions.Only include pre-defined layers for those other objects and settings that must be in the template before a Layer Key Style is loaded or any objects created. Most layers are created when needed by the layer key style that is loaded into a drawing.


Items that should be included in the template file: Setting the template file location in the “Options” dialog box.
