Updating IronCAD drawing templates

We have found some cases of users using very old (9-10 year old) IronCAD drawing templates and it causing some problems. We recommend at every major release, open your IronCAD drawing templates (.icd) and use Save As to save to a new template file. This should update the format of your templates and you can put them in the template folder for continued use.
