Just to clear this up, manufacturing has nothing to do with it. Drafting may need to change the text size, nomenclature, or position of marking on, let's say, an instrument panel. Since Pro-E's 2D drafting completely *****, especially for busy drawings, we have to export all our models to 2D AutoCAD where the information can be arranged, dimensioned and such. As can happen and often does, things change and because things change, a lot of now useless text has to be redrawn in AutoCAD. Reentered, sized, justified…. If a panel is good but there is another one like it but the nomenclature is different. Again, the dummied down Pro-E text has to be removed and new MText put in its place.
