SWX 2016 Aligned text with vertical dimensions, and other preferences
(OP)
Preference where I work is for:
Aligned text on vertical dimensions
Use of 'DIA' after the dim value instead of phi symbol before
Use of R after dim value instead of before.
It's tiresome to fix all of these once I lay them down, but I can't find where to set the preference. Where's DIMSTYLE when you need it?

The other two, however, violate ANSI/ISO. I wouldn't recommend replacing the standard practice with your own symbol set.

p.s. I was amused by phrase "aligned with practice that predates greek letters".

Your explanation is clear... unfortunately, I think we've all been there.
If you need drawings made to this 'format' a LOT, EEnd's link is the way to go. It will take you some time to set up the callout format file to do exactly what you want, but once you do it's set-it-and-forget-it.
