Revision table order 1

[GreenMindmn]

Hello,
Based upon ASME/ANSI standards does the order (ascending/descending) matter in revision tables?
A vs C
B vs B
C vs A
If no what are some standard practices?

In the past my company had its revision start lowest(A) at top and ascend.(Note my companies revision block is in the lower edge of paper)
But recently my company switched to Autodesk Inventor and now with our new title block the revs start with highest and go down to A.

Is this a question of orientation (top or bottom) of the page?

Yeah, like I said earlier my preference is just to put list of ECO # & date etc. for each rev not try and put an actual description on the drawing.

Even then though if the rev list gets excessively long (such as often happens on higher level assemblies) it's useful to remove some of the older revs.

If you actually try to put a useful description you either sacrifice the top right 1/4 of the drawing or have to remove earlier revs at some point.

The descriptions aren't read anyway!

Link the doc to the revision no. This way it can be found on the system server.
