How To Create Title Block Autocad
Creating a Title Block with Attributes in AutoCAD
One of the things that every drawing needs is a title block. This provides vital information about the drawing when it is printed. Some of the data that makes up a title block is who draw it, what day it was published, revision number, etc. Every drawing at the professional level will have one. For those that aren't familiar with the term, here is sample one below that is included with AutoCAD.
The title block for this exercise will be designed for an 11'x17' sheet. If you want to make it smaller to fit an 8-1/2'x11' sheet, adjust it as needed. You should be familiar with blocks and attributes before continuing.
The green lines are used to create reference points for your text. You could also use the M2P Osnap. They are a midpoint that is used for positioning Middle-Centre text. For this section, text is RomanS, 0.125' tall and Middle-Centre justified.
Now draw the bottom right section of the title block. Here is a link to a larger image with the details:
Bottom right corner of the title block detail: tb_bottom.gif. The text is 0.065' tall.
Now comes the fun part, adding the attributes. Use this image as a reference for the positioning of the attributes, and the table below for the contents. You will want to create text styles for the different text below.
TAG | PROMPT | DEFAULT VALUE | FONT | HEIGHT | JUSTIFY |
PROJECT | What PROJECT is this? | PROJECT NAME | RomanS | 0.25 | Middle Center |
TITLE | What is the TITLE? | TITLE | RomanS | 0.25 | Middle Center |
LOGO | What are your INITIALS? All star wars pc games. | ABC | RomanD | 0.75 | Middle Center |

REVISION | What REVISION is this? | - | RomanS | 0.125 | MIddle Left |

NOTE1 | First NOTE | Note | RomanS | 0.1875 | Middle Center |
NOTE2 | Second Note | Note 2 | RomanS | 0.1875 | Middle Center |
Once all you attributes are created, they should look something like this. You can always move them to get them in the correct spots.
Once all the attributes are in place, you can create your block. Remember when selecting attributes for a block, you have to select them order. Create it as an External block (WBLOCK) so that you can insert it in other drawings.

Now that you have a title block, you can go into a layout tab and insert it. Answer all the prompts when they come up (look at the command line). Your completed title block should look something like this:
