Ansi A size Dwg

[AndyRonLI]

Folks,

For small details it is useful to put them on a single 8 1/2  by 11 sheet.

I am a returnee to CA and am missing something

When I create a new layout it defaults to Arch D

When I set the page size to 8 1/2 by 11 and then scale to fit

The title blocks and borders are way inside the page edges.

 

Are there layout templates for other sizes?

 

I also cant seem to find the spot to set the scale. or anything but the title

I am recalling the layout stuff had the steepest learning curve.

Any help is appreciated

Thanks

ANdy

Micheal,

So that's fine to just print it out, but I want an acutal layout with a small title block, the date, page numbers, scale etc etc.

The tutorial seems to indicate one can open a truly blank layout and build what I want, but every time I choose new layout I get the ARCH D.

I did find some other ARCH sizes. but no ANSI A.

Thanks

Andy

I don't believe there is an Arc A layout template but you can adjust your page size but keep the scale at 1:1 and then create your own title block or edit an existing one to fit on page 0.  Once you are happy with the setup save the file as a template.

 

You can actually have several title block templates in the same file but that makes the learning curve even steeper.

I was thinking you already had a "A" size border (template).  Its real easy to create one, if you don't have one (like Chop mentions).  Once that is set, then you can do what I originally suggested to set the size to print.
