Hi,
 
My currently installed Autocad 2008 starts the drawing in imperial units, and I just cant find where to set it up so that everything is in metric unit. I can change it in an actual drawing but then the print page still has an option of metric or imperial. My previouse versions didnt have this and I would prefere it all in metric, with out having to remeber to always select metric etc.
Any help would be great.

Change units in "drawing setup" in Format menu.

Change it in your template file so you dont have to change it all the time
