Are there any detail drawing or assembly drawing formats available? What I mean by formats is the border with title block and notes.

    After Add>Text, Options will list the Class and Subclass the text is going to and the Text Block size. Selected Text Block might be a reason for the text not to fit from the file. Equally, line formatting in the file can help with the fit. You could select 1 as the Text Block size, usually the smallest, and then use Edit>Change to change the Text Block size after placement from file.

    Setup>Design Parameters, Design tab has "Size" for "the world known to PCB Editor", pick a standard page size from the drop-down, specify the Width and Height parameters required if "Other" selected.

    Thanks so much.

    Does this only allow one line of text to be placed at a time? I've got a block of text - multiple lines.
