Title Block Dimensions

[Shag_Bore]

I have a title block created for a size B sheet. I was wondering if anybody could send me a rough set of dimensions that they use when scaling the title block up for size C,D and E sheets? I couldn't find anything on the google. Would like it to be close to professional as possible. Title block is currently 6"x2" on bottom right of drawing sheet. 

Thanks!

You can use the same title block on all sheet sizes. You don't scale up the title block for a "D", when it is plotted at a 1:1, the tb would be the same. Just the area you have to use for the drawing is larger. We use the same size for A, B, C, D.

Every company has different needs of what they want to display in the TB

As the above said, don't scale TitleBlock.

Same size for all paper size.

Also don't scale font, symbol, leader, arrow etc.  Al stay the same for all paper size.

As long as you dimension your border to the outside of the sheet itself ... I use 5/16 or so from all edges.. then the TB will automatically attach in lower left corner if you use the basic setup. 

IF you dimension your border from edge to edge and bottom to top instead of edges of sheet it will not change and you need different borders for each sheet size from what I remember.

ok thanks! i gather from the posts above that B,C,D,E drawings utilize the same size title block. I will make a smaller one for when I do A size drawings though!

Thanks!

That is the best approach I have seen.. and Inventor does this better than most CAD programs!
