A standard import (.tit) file is a text file containing drawing border and title block information, which can be imported by the AMTITLE command.
The instructions in this procedure restricts itself to providing information about the format of the *.tit file. It does not provide information on how to use a text editor.
- In the text editor, create a New file.
- In the first line, enter the scale factor.
For example to use a scale of 1:2, enter 1:2
- In the second line, enter the name of the *.dwg file to use for the drawing border.
For example, if the drawing border is contained in the file iso_a2x4.dwg, enter iso_a2X4.dwg.
- In subsequent lines specify the title block attribute and the value in the format ("Title_Block_Attribute" "Value")
For example, to specify the drawing name box in the tile block as "Crane_OA2" and the drawn by box as "Autodesk" enter the following two lines
("GEN_TITLE_DWG" "Crane_0A2")
("GEN_TITLE_NAME" "Autodesk")
- Save the file as a *.tit file.
Note:
- If a title block attribute is not specified in a *.tit file, import does not fill the respective attributes with any values.
- The program does not allow blank lines in the file.
- To use quotation marks within the title block, for example to mark inch values, add a backslash before the quotation mark symbol. “USC 3/4\”produces: USC 3/4"
