A drafting standard defines the display style of annotations in parts,

drawings and assemblies including text notes, dimensions, arrow styles,

tables, symbols, etc. The ANSI standard (American National Standards

Institute) is predominantly used in the USA, whereas the ISO standard

(International Organization for Standardization) is used in over 160-member

countries.
