    Are we talking about part doc or drawing doc?

    If I understand you correctly, change the drafting standard from ISO to ANSI.

    If I'm misunderstanding you, upload a screenshot of a dimension that's not like you want it and I will have another look. Or I can can email you a template that is set up the way you want it.
