All drawings start from either a default drawing template file or a custom drawing template file that you create. Drawing template files store default settings, styles, and additional data.
Before you start to draw, you decide on the units of measurement to be used in the drawing, and set the format, precision, and other conventions to be used in coordinates and distances.
A drawing template file provides consistency in the drawings that you create by maintaining your standard styles and settings.
You can keep track of your drawings more easily if you add keywords or other information to them.
You can specify the geographic location, orientation, and elevation of the objects in a drawing.
