Because Template files generate Drawing files and cantt be opened on their own by default, itвЂ™s very unlikely that you will accidentally save over your Template with a working document, which is the main reason Template files are used.ДЎ. Once a Template file is created, it cannot be opened on its own. You can make different templates for different kinds of drawings using different units, like architectural, civil, or mechanical drawings using metric or imperial measurements. This will save you from having to change settings for every new drawing. The purpose of a template is to save everything you would want to be set up in every new drawing. Anything that can be saved in a drawing file can be saved in a template file. Templates are used to save custom default settings, units, scales, layers, styles, attached blocks, and layouts. In order to create new Drawing files (.dwg) in AutoCAD with New command CtrlвЂ“N, you must choose a preexisting Drawing Template file (.dwt) to base the drawing on.
