To Create a Drawing Template

Create a new template from an existing drawing or drawing template.

After changing the settings of any drawing file, you can create a template to quickly create new drawings with the same conventions and default settings.

1. Erase all of the objects in the drawing that you do not want to keep.
2. Click File menu Save As and, under File Format, select AutoCAD Drawing Template.

   DWT files must be saved in the current drawing file format.

3. In the Save Drawing As dialog box, File Name text box, enter a name for the drawing template and click Save.
4. Enter a description for the drawing template and click OK.

The new template is saved in the template folder.
