Is there any possibility in drafting (Catia v5 R14) to define dimension properties (font type, font size, arrows etc.) what will be saved and next time when I start drafting (new drawing), that what was define before, I would like to set as default.

Notice - I’m working that on other manners:
1. Start new drawing and create one dimension. In properties (of that dimension) I define what I want (font, arrows, etc.). After that I set that dimension as default and in style toolbar I set user default properties. Next dimension will have the same properties.
2. Dimension part complete and at finish select all dimensions and define properties.
Does anyone know some easier manner (maybe standard or something else).

Thanks

maybe will work if you'll make some kind of 'startup file' - an empty file where you save your settings and use it all the time when you want to create a new drawing.
 
You said it "Standards".
Check this site for related posts (setting up drafting standard, admin mode.......)
Also have a look at the documentation.
