Translations:Drawing Template HowTo/7/en

Begin with a new document within Inkscape. Referring to the FreeCAD Wiki page on Drawing templates, one pixel = one millimeter. That means if you wish to create a Drawing template for an ANSI A sized page, (letter size), which is 216mm X 279mm, our template should be sized 216px X 279px. If you wish for the page to be landscape orientated, those numbers would be reversed. For the purposes of this tutorial, landscape orientation will be used. The page is defined as being 279px wide and 216px high.
