How can i change font style in drawing template?

Kalai Arasu Oct 17, 2016 8:02 AM

When i am opening the new drawing it's showing all the fonts like Annotations, Dimensions, tables,Views,etc... all in Century Gothic, we are using some other font style, when i making new drawing every drawing i want to go to document properties and change all the font style to our custom style. It's wasting too much of time for this, Is there any way to change Century Gothic to some other font?

Hi,

In a drawing go to options Document Properties then change the Font to whatever you want.

Just be sure to save the drawing as a New Template (or overwrite the old Template), with the new Font, the when you open up the new Template all the fonts will be to what you have set them to

Thanks

As Mark Greenwell said, you need to change your Drawing Template. Open a new drawing, make the desired changes in your document properties, then save as Drawing Template (.drwdot). Save it at the location you're pointing to at Tools > System Options > File Locations > Document Templates. If you're currently using the default template, or a custom template saved at the default location, I'd suggest saving it elsewhere (on a network, or on your hard drive away from the SolidWorks installation folders) so you won't lose it when you upgrade to a new version of SolidWorks.
