How To Create a Title Block in AutoCad

The title block is a border drawing inserted as an AutoCAD block on another drawing. The title block utility can update attributes on the title block.
  1. Start a blank new drawing.
  2. Draw your drawing border using standard AutoCAD commands and objects.
  3. Enter ATTDEF at the command prompt to insert attribute definition objects.
    Note: When the border drawing is inserted as a block on another drawing, attribute definition objects become attributes.
  4. Enter the Tag name, for example DESC1, DESC2, SHEET, SHEET_TOTAL.
  5. Set any other attribute definition properties and values.
  6. Select OK.
  7. Specify the insertion point.
  8. Repeat for each attribute definition for the title block.
  9. Save the border drawing as a DWG file.
This drawing is inserted as a block on another drawing. It can be also be inserted when creating a drawing template file, DWT. A drawing template file is used to provide consistency in the drawings that you create by providing standard style, settings, layers, and border.
Note: Run Title Block setup with this border drawing file active if using the WD_TB attribute method to link AutoCAD Electrical values to the title block.
