In most cases you plot your enterprise industry model map using an existing plot template from the Plot Library. To define templates, see Working With Plot Templates.
When you create a new plot that uses a plot template, the plot inherits the template settings and features. You cannot add features to a plot you create with a template. However, you can modify the non-system attributes of some features in their generic forms.
You can change the printer and paper for a specific plot, as long as you select the same paper format as the one specified in the template.
If the plot template has blank values, you can specify those values for a specific plot (except for grids and cross hair settings).
If you change the template after you create a plot from it, the plot does not change. The connection between the template and the plot exists only during plot creation.
