CATIA Drafting Importing a Standard

CATIA Drafting Importing a Standard

CATIA Drafting Importing a Standard

(OP)
Hello, I have created a couple of sheets of drafting material. However, I used CATIA's default ANSI standards. Is there a way to import a set standard I have created into the CATIA Drawing I have already created or will I have to start all over to make sure the standards are put in place? I just want the standards I created to replace CATIA's default ANSI standards. I made the mistake of not selecting the set standard when I first started the drafting. Thank you to anybody who can help.

RE: CATIA Drafting Importing a Standard

We have CATIA locked to allow only one drafting standard, so I can't test this:

Open the drawing, and use FILE + PAGE SETUP. Change the standard from ANSI to the new one, and click the UPDATE button to convert all existing dimensions. New dimensions will be to the new, current standard.
