To Work with Sheet Format in GOST Drawings

Sheet format defines the sheet size and elements on the sheet. The default sheet format is A3 with a border, title block, and three extensions for more information. The Sheet Format dialog box provides you with the ability to change sheet size and add, change, or remove elements on the sheet.

When you add a sheet, it appears with the same format as the active sheet. Each sheet in a drawing has different formats.

Title block extensions

Extensions are additional title blocks that contain more information about the drawing or specific parts in the drawing.

• Extension 1 contains information about the inventory numbers and includes spaces for signature and date information.
• Extensions 2 and 3 contain sketch symbol and part number information. Extension 3 is automatically repositioned when you select Portrait sheet orientation.
