1. Autocad Title Block Location

New to setting up autcad and new to this forum - hope I can get simple help! I need to set up A3 and A4 drawing templates, drawing railings, gates etc 1 to 1.

Will edit the templates to suit my business, but a starter would be great. Also, any advice on printer set ups would be welcome.eg, do I have the drg details in 'model space' and the frame in'paper space'? Maybe there is a simple general guide for real plonkers that I can refer to?

I'm not bad at doing simpledrafting, but setting drgs up is new to me. I have access to a series of metric templates that are in a zip file. All I need is an email.Everything you draw should be created in model space at FULL size no matter how small (i.e. postage stamp) or how large (i.e. Buckingham Palace). As for the frame, I assume you are talking about the title block and border, most users these days put that in a paper space layout and not in model space which leaves text and dimensions.

That's a coin toss. Personally I think it is easier to put both in the layout but some will argue that one should be using annotative scaling. Try both and decide for yourself. It may all come down to what type of drawing(s) you're doing.

Sure.Let's take a look at the A-series dimensions, firstA1841 x 594 mmA2594 x 420 mmA3420 x 297 mmA4297 x 210 mmIf you look, you'll see that the A3 is precisely 1/2 the dimensions of the A1 (with a 1mm difference). So, if you were to just scale the titleblock by a factor of.5, it should insert into the A3 page quite nicely, but with a 1/2 mm difference (not really that big of a deal).The A4, sadly, does not have an easy scale factor to use. You will probably have to re-draw it manually or play around with stretching to get it to fit properly.Now, if your company is big on equality of text sizes across the different drawing sizes (i.e. They have a standard text height of, say, 7mm) then that's another matter entirely, and nullifies what I've said in its entirety. ITS SO EASY we do it every day title block is A1 at 1:1 just plot at 1=2 this is A3 sizeOOPS modelspace you need to use layouts create a window that is 841x594 to see a A1 sheet that you have already scaled so you will be scaling a scaled. Again plot at 1=2The best way take your title block out of modelspace and use layout tabs.

We size our text to 2.5mm min for A1 &A3 then its readable either scale, 1.8mm is absolute smallest ever to use. If you want A4 then you have to think seriously about how much info on a plan you can read.

You didn't read post above create a layout viewport 841x594 MVIEW zoom E so you can see it, this is a A1 at 1:1 scale in mm, if you window up your title block in this viewport it should become almost an exact scale factor. If you have the viewports toolbar displayed when you jump into viewport a number will appear in your case this should be an exact number like 1 2 4 or 5, 1:1000 1:500 1:250 1:200 this for dwg in metres mm will be 1000 times.

You can type a number into this little box to rescale. Once set use the lock viewport option.A1 plot at 1=1 pick window, A3 plot 1=2 same window. I was having trouble in our office where people were duplicating an A1 layout and changing the scale to A3 to create a version for printing at A3. The problem arises then that there are now 2 layouts and a change will be made in one and missed in the other or something like that.

This is storing up big problems. I had to nip it in the bud so I created 1 layout in A1. This is the only size layout that we use even though we now do the majority of our printing on A3 and not A1 as we did when I set the system up.

The scale is set on the layout in a field that is tied back to the PlotScale and the Viewport Custom Scale. The used selects from a drop down on the ribbon to print in A1 ot A3. As part of the lisp all fields and force updated. This means that the scale is plotted based on the sheet size. I also plot the sheet size on the plot.

I have found that this solves a lot of problems. Even if templates themselves need to be updated then they are less to be updated.
