I've been trying to use this attached file as my drawing template, because it is my university's standard. So far i've only tried making it a .dwt file but it hasnt worked at all, has anyone created new templates from pdf/images or anything like this?

Hello @joao_arthur_da_cruz_nunes ,
It doesn't seem like you've attached a file to your post. To create a new template in Onshape, you should upload a .dwt to any Onshape document. Once this is done, it will be available as a drawing template in all your Onshape Documents.
