Sample Title Block Features and Instructions

There are number of title block templates available for drawings. These templates are completely functional and can be used as is or customized using the methods described under Drawing Title Block Templates .There are some important features to note. All title block data can be entered through the Drawing Properties dialog box on the Title Block tab.

Page size: Because drawing title blocks do not currently have the ability to scale, many are specific to a certain page size. A landscape orientation is assumed on all title block templates. There are 4 title blocks that will work with any size paper and appear in the lower right-hand corner. These include the file Simple and 3 files that start with Universal.

Grid: Many of the templates have a grid border around them. The grid is divided by inches. It is numbered from left to right and is lettered from top to bottom. The purpose of the grid is to easily refer to a piece of equipment or a section of the drawing. For example, you may note “The breaker in H-5 is missing data.”

Sheet Notes: This is a section of the title block that allows you to make special notes about things in the drawing, list tasks to be done, or record additional data. It is helpful when making a note to include the grid coordinates (G-6 for example) of the items that are referenced.

Legend: A few of the templates have a legend. The legend is simply an image that has been inserted into the title block. The image of the legend “EZP Drawing legend.jpg” should be located in your title blocks folder. The legend can easily be deleted if you do not want it added to any of the other templates.

Revisions: To help track revisions, most title blocks contain a section for recording at least 4 different revisions.

Logo Images: Most templates come with two or three logo images. The templates come with EasyPower images, but you can replace any or all of them with your own company logos.
