    Customizing Sheet Formats

    I have finally customized a Solidworks sheet format for my company requirements. (Our previous standard was generated in Autocad) This new sheet format was edited from a B sized sheet. How can I save the title block (as customized) for A, C, D & E sized sheets without starting each one from...
