Title Block scale issue

[jimjsimmons]

I am new to AutoCAD & am using AutoCAD Lt 2020 for Mac.  I have been trying for a week to insert a my title page onto a drawing.  From Page Setup Manager I have formated both files to 12" x 18" sheet size.    I tried to inserting the title page as a DWT template and when that didn't work I converted the dwg title page to a dwt block & then inserted it on to my dwg drawing and in both instances the Title page was twice as big (24x36) as the dwg drawing.

I have watched every video & read & re-read Autodesk help pages & cannot find a solution to what is probably somewhat simple?!  Please help me, thank you!

Hi Jim,

You already started the discussion about your problem here:

Please don't double post - people who want to help you should see the whole story.
So I see that the problem is in scale, as I suspected in previous topic.
Can you share here both of your drawings: main drawing with 12" x 18" sheet size and title block you are trying to insert?
I'll look at them.

Will do tomorrow. In the interim, my original 3 questions included: 1. How do I erase unwanted dwg & dwt files? 2. I have tried to purge & -purge unwanted & unused blocks with no luck. Any advice to erase these blocks? Thank you for your help.

>>>>>How do I erase unwanted dwg & dwt files?
Ensure that they are not opened in AutoCAD and move to Trash (Bin) using your favourite file manager, for example - Finder.

>>>>I have tried to purge & -purge unwanted & unused blocks with no luck
That means the blocks you cannot purge are actually inserted somewhere in the drawing. Sometimes using -WBLOCK command with * option can help:

Thank you for taking your time to review my drawings!

1. I am unable to set up a dwg drawing and title page combination* that is
other than 24x26*?

2. You will see many blocks that I have created that I don't see are used
on my dwg drawings. The only blocks I seem to be able to purge are the
blocks that are supplied by Autodesk in the AutoCAD Lt software? How can I
remove my unused and unwanted blocks permanently?
(possibly I made the mistake of saving them as block *dwg* file?)

3. During the learning process I created MANY erroneous dwg & dwt files.
How cain I remove them permanently?

Thanks again for helping with these issues! Jim

I'm waiting for your drawings, you promised to share them.

If you mean you have a lot if "blocks" created as separate DWG files, then see #3.
