Background

The Title Block Designer tool is used to create and modify page title blocks, which are stored as DGN files in catalogs (DWG files for promis.e for AutoCAD). Title blocks generally consist of lines and other drawing elements, static text, and variable text. Variables for dates, project descriptions, page descriptions, and other information are automatically populated when the title block is used on a project page. The title block used on a project page is specified on the New/Modify Page dialog. A default title block can be specified in Options > Project Options.
