Increasing size of templates
Increasing size of templates
(OP)
Hi. I hope that somebody can help me!
I was trying to send some drawings by email, but I notice that some of mi files are more than 8 mb size, while others are only 500 KB or less. I discovery that my templates have an 8 mb size, but I don't know why is this. I erase everything in the template, and, with a white sheet, it still had 8 mb. I restart a new template with the solidworks drawing template as a base (32 kb) I add some elements to the format and check the size (500 Kb) I DID NOT add more elements, move some lines, save again and check the size (1 MB!!!!) Does anybody know how to keep the templates small, and why it increase their size when I save? It's amazing that i cant send mi files by email because the template is much, much bigger than the drawing itself.... Thanks for your help!

RE: Increasing size of templates
Out templates contain just the drawing border and titleblock and are around 200kb, no matter ahow many times you save them.
