Steve, Thanks for the information! I'll have to try that because in AutoCAD I have a much better Title Block and could scale the PCB to make a better assembly drawing. I have been using a Mechanical layer in Protel with a horid title block and 1:1 scale boards.
One assembly drawing problem I have is when I create a Full Rack PCB (aprox 11 x 16.5) I can only print 11x17 and the print is hard to read. I guess I could create a PDF or print file and take it to a copy store and have it printed C Size, but I have never tried it. Jeff Adolphs Lake Shore Cryotronics, Inc.
