Revision table templates:

The Revision Table Templates are used to determine where and how the revision table is inserted into the drawing with the CustomTools Data feature. The revision table template determines also the column sizes used in the revision table.

Info NOTE: Mapping a revision table with the Sheet Format using the revision table templates by them selves, does not mean that the revision table is inserted automatically into the drawing when it has been created.

To insert the revision table automatically into the drawing(s), you need to create a Drawing Template which uses the Sheet Format which has the revision table mapping.

Revision Table Template Name of the revision table template used with the SOLIDWORKS drawing sheet format with the mapping.
