  1. Which file type does AutoCAD use for a drawing standards file?

    Answer: .dws

    Standards files use the .dws extension and are linked with the STANDARDS command.

  2. Which command checks the current drawing against its associated standards files and reports violations?

    Answer: CHECKSTANDARDS

    CHECKSTANDARDS compares layers, dimension styles, linetypes, and text styles against the linked .dws files.

  3. A client sends drawings that use their own layer names. Which tool maps those layers to your office standard?

    Answer: Layer Translator (LAYTRANS)

    The Layer Translator maps layers to a standard drawing's layers and can save these mappings for reuse.

  4. Which command removes unused named objects such as layers, blocks, and text styles to make a drawing smaller?

    Answer: PURGE

    PURGE removes unused named objects and, through the command-line version, unused registered applications.

  5. Which command removes duplicate or overlapping lines, arcs, and polylines?

    Answer: OVERKILL

    OVERKILL deletes duplicate geometry and combines partially overlapping or collinear objects.

  6. Which tool lets you browse other drawings and drag their layers, blocks, and dimension styles into the current drawing?

    Answer: DesignCenter

    DesignCenter (ADCENTER) gives you access to named content in other drawings so you can drag it into the current one.

  7. Which command lets you save and restore layer property settings, such as on/off, frozen, and color, as a named set?

    Answer: LAYERSTATE

    LAYERSTATE opens the Layer States Manager, where you save named layer configurations, restore them, and export them as .las files.
