You don't say what version you are using. If I remember right in the Cad
Manager pull down toolbar you can maintain standards from plain Acad
perspective; i.e; layers, linetypes, Dim styles, & Text Styles only. You
keep the standards in a placeholder dwg,dwt,or dws file. They can be batch
applied.
Good luck,
