formats and templates
(OP)
Hi all,
Search doesnt appear to offer much here.
As I understand templates are pre set conditions for parts, drawings, asn assemblies. Things like units, fonts, etc. can be saved out as needed. Formats are drawing specific however. They contain border features, title block, custom properties, etc. My question involves line weights when printing. Are these part of the format somehow, or are they set in the print setup? Any comments on any of this are welcomed. Thanks

As vims mentioned, you set this is the print dialog. Then be sure to save your template(s), and the settings will be saved for each time you use the default template.
