Drawing Templates are a method of storing and using settings for various situations.
Why use Drawing Templates
Drawing templates allow you to use different settings for different situations. For example one drawing template could be used to set text the proper size for printing at 1/8" scale while another could set the text for 1/4" scale. Instead of having to go through the Character Settings and adjust the fonts and sizes you can simply assign a Drawing Template to the drawing that already has those fonts and sizes set up.
Drawing Templates control all of the settings listed under Drawing Options section of the System Options and Project Options.
