Setting fill type and font import settings in Template Editor

You can set the way fill type and font settings map from AutoCAD and MicroStation files to templates by modifying the fill type import and font map files. The fill type and font map paths are set in the File Locations preferences dialog box.

The fill type import file is an ASCII file, so it can be modified with any text editor. Each text line in the example below has a Template Editor fill type id and a DWG/DXF/DGN fill type name. This is a five-line example of a fill type mapping file.


The table below lists the available fill type ids and names that you can combine in the way you want. Each row describes the default mapping Template Editor uses if the fill settings remained unchanged.
