Which file extension does AutoCAD use for a drawing standards file that can be associated with drawings for checking?
Answer: .dws
A .dws file stores the standard layers, dimension styles, linetypes, and text styles that drawings are checked against.
Which command associates one or more standards files with the current drawing?
Answer: STANDARDS
STANDARDS opens the Configure Standards dialog, where you attach .dws files to the drawing.
A CAD manager wants to scan an existing drawing for layers and text styles that violate the office standard. Which command should be run after the standards file is attached?
Answer: CHECKSTANDARDS
CHECKSTANDARDS analyzes the drawing against the associated standards files and reports each violation.
Which four named object types can the built-in Standards plug-ins check by default?
Answer: Layers, dimension styles, linetypes, and text styles
The default plug-ins check layers, dimension styles, linetypes, and text styles.
When CHECKSTANDARDS finds a problem, what does the 'Mark this problem as ignored' option do?
Answer: Flags the issue so it is not reported in future checks
Ignored problems are flagged and skipped in later checks unless you choose to show ignored problems.
Which tool lets you check many drawings against standards files at once and outputs an XML report?
Answer: Batch Standards Checker
The Batch Standards Checker is a standalone utility that audits multiple drawings and creates an XML report.
In the Configure Standards Settings, what does enabling 'Automatically fix nonstandard properties' do?
Answer: Fixes violations whose names match the standard but whose properties differ
When a name matches but properties differ, AutoCAD can automatically apply the standard's properties.
