hi,


can anyone tell me how to change the sheet sizes in a format file as we do in a drawing file . sometimes i create formats in a3 size but when i require it be changed to a4 size it seems impossible. pls tell me a solution for this!!!!!!!





thanks in advance
 
You have to create one format for each size drawing you want to create.


To create a new size format, you could do like this:


1-export all tables as tablefiles, then delete them from the format (do NOT save the format)


2 - export the format as a iges


3 - create a new format and set the correct sizer, then import the iges. Say Yes to resize to fit


4 - import the tables and place them.


5 Save the new format


This is basically how we all do it.
