Standards

You can set up styles in SolidWorks to format dimensions, but it is not necessary to do so for dimensions and other annotations to follow a drawing standard.

In SolidWorks, you set the standard for the current document in Tools, Options, Document Properties, Drafting Standard . The standard can be ANSI, ISO, DIN, JIS, BSI, GOST, or GB.

You can also set the standard in a drawing document template.
