The document discusses different ways to create an AutoCAD profile including script setup, template setup, hardware configuration, ARX or DBX applications, Lisp files, and a user designed registry profile. It also describes how to load setups using command line switches, Lisp runs, and the options dialog. CUI files contain tool palette files that can be exported or imported, while working with standards involves layers, text styles, dimension styles, and associating a standard file with drawing files to check standards. Defining a standard uses a *.dws standards file, batch checking, and the Checkstandards command.

1. Create an Autocad Profile
R.

2. Forms of setup
• Script setup
• Template setup
• Hardware configuration
• ARX or DBX applications
• Lisp files
• A user designed registry profile
• ARG file
• CUI file

3. Basic forms to load setups
• Command line switches
– /b /t /ld /p /s, etc.
• And/or lisp runs
• And options dialog
– {includes registy profile type}
• Load *.arg file

4. CUI Files
• CUI files contain tool pallette files *.xtp
– *.xtp files may be exported or imported
– Tool pallette groups have *.xpg

5. Working with Standards
• Standards contain
– Layers
– Text styles
– Linetypes
– Dimension styles
• Associate standard file with one or more drawing files
• The drawing shall be checked to meet standards
– Fix allows conversion
• CAD Standards Settings dialog box
• AUDITING utilizes plug-in applications

6. Defining a standard
• Standards file and checking
– *.dws save-as
– Verify with Batch standards Checker
– May use Checkstandards command
• Convert Layers
