I created a drafting standard for my project. I purposely changed the font of one of my items in the BOM. Now when I reload the drafting standard, the font size is not going back to the default as is set in the drafting standard. I was of the opinion that drafting standard would force these "standards" to be followed throughout the drawing
Changing the Drafting Standard sometimes doesn't affect existing entities in the drawing, but before giving up click on the gray box at the top left corner of your BOM to select the entire table and make sure that the "Use Document Font" icon is selected. It probably isn't.
Thank you Glenn. I did not know that this setting existed. This does make the BOM contents to follow the standards set in the drafting standard file. I wish there was a non Macro based method which would force all the items to follow the drafting standards.
Did you change and save your drawing template and drawing format after the changes????
John, no I did not need to save the drawing template nor the sheet format. How is it connected to my query? Thanks

Any Change in the Tools/Options should go through a save procedure that covers everything, may take a little time, but someday you'll you be glad you did..
