kippax Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 When I try by right clicking on the Layout tab and navigating to the appropriate file the command line reads - "** File T:\Common\Drawing_Office\Templates-Drg_Sheets\A0_Vorlage_ENG.dwt was created by an incompatible version of AutoCAD" When I try to open the file directly from my the desktop the command line reads - "Template drawing C:\Users\s.brough\Desktop\A0_Vorlage_ENG.dwt is not on file." Very frustrating, is anybody able to help ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 What version of AutoCAD did you use to create the new templates? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very frustrating, is anybody able to help ? can you try opening it on another station? if it opens OK, try changing the version and saveing it.

kippax Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Turns out the Germans have had ACAD2014 for a while now, but hadn't bothered updating us. Cheers !.. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReMark Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 So someone (those darn Germans) created new templates in a file format you couldn't open. Sounds like they run a well oiled machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kippax Posted December 3, 2015 Author Share Posted December 3, 2015 Partly our own fault. They bought us out a couple of years back, but we have been grimly hanging on to our own identity wherever we could, but finally got pulled on the drawing templates.

ReMark Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 There is however something to be said about everyone being on the same page both literally and figuratively. I hope you guys don't have a sculling crew. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
