I have changed the default template to my company's, however the lettering is not parametric with project parameters. Is there a way to set this up so that I only need to insert project information once?

Sorry but your question is not at all clear.

What template?  Assuming project <<<<Sorry - I just re-read your subject. 

"...lettering is not parametric with project parameters"...  << I haven't got a clue as to what you are saying

Project information..... Use the standard shared parameters.  These can be used in sheet families.

I mean when I print my sheets using the standard revit border, all the information is placed automatically based on the project information entered at the start of the project. If I use my own custom border, then the information isn't entered automatically. Sorry I wasn't very clear about that. I am looking for a way to make my custom border automatically place project information. Also with that, I am trying to get all the fonts, symbols, and standard annotations to match what my company already has in place in AutoCAD.

Edit your sheet family and use the shared project parameters.  It appears that you don't understand these so read up on shared parameters in your HELP.

You can learn how title blocks work by editing the default titleblock and looking at the parameters used.

Be aware that Revit is not CAD.  Many of your CAD standards may have to change and in most cases, it will be for the better.

Ok thank you very much. I do not know anything about shared parameters so I will read up on them.
