Set default sheet paper (e.g. size, color)

Hello!

I would like to set a default sheet paper.

So everytime I open a new .dwg or .idw, I would like it to have the size A4 and white sheet color.

Thanks.

You must edit the template by opening it and selecting tools-document settings - sheet and seleceting white color. In same template go in browser bar and right button click on sheet:1 and select A4 size. When opening template its location is C:\Users\Public\Documents\Autodesk\Inventor 2016\Templates

Hi, just start new drawing, set up the sheet style you want (as dstrbac8 sayd) and then hit "Save As Template" (under "Save As" menu). Save it as "Standard.idw" (or "Norm.idw", you should have something like that in your template folder, just rewrite it) and then do the same for .dwg.

 

If you don't know where are your templates than look at "Application Options" > "File" > "Default templates"

Consider using "Accept as Solution" / "Kudos" if you find this helpful.
