Is there a way to save feature classes between different projects

[VsweetprinceV]

Hi everyone, 

I am relatively new to ARCGIS Pro, but have recently been taken on in a junior level GIS analyst level. I work for the graphics department of a small archaeological company. My job consists of digitising plans made in the field, standardising them according to guidelines, then submitting them for review to higher-ups. My organisation previously used AutoCAD, however they are beginning to move towards GIS. This is where my question comes in.

In CAD, the analysts use a template which is pre made and loaded onto a new project when starting. This comes with all of the 'feature classes' needed in order to draw different features (i.e grey polyline for outside of stone, light black and darker black for different stages of features). For text, this also includes ready made text fonts and colours which are standardised for different needs. So, is there a way to do this in ArcGIS Pro, where, say, if i was to start a new project, i could just import the classes from one file, and have everything standardised, including names of feature classes, colours, line width etc.

Thanks, 

Sweetprince

Hi, 

Thanks for replying. 

Unfortunately this did not work how i wanted to. I could import the features but arcgis assigned colours and line widths automatically to these features. The only way I found to change this was to import each individual feature as a .lyrx file, and then convert the symbology of an already created feature in a new project. This is time consuming, so i am looking for a better way to do this. Ideally, when starting a new project, i would like to be able to import a file which contains the symbology of each feature class needed, as well as pre-set layouts. If you could help me with this that would be amazing. 

Thanks,
