As far as layer names go, Carlson has a layer translator under the menu file->drawing utilities->layer translator. I have a spreadsheet that helps speed this process up significantly. That will get your layer names changed. To get colors and linetypes correct, I use a drawing template and standard legend. I do not keep my standard layers in the template, but keep them in a legend file which receives outside linework using copy/paste. As long as the layer names have been changed correctly, all the colors and linetypes from the outside file will take on the ones defined in legend file.
