Publish sheets

94 viewsUpdated 18/09/20261 min read

Sheets are added through a four-step wizard that reads each drawing's title block, proposes a number and title, and lets you correct them before anything is published.

This topic includes:

Publish a set of drawings

  1. Open Sheets and click + Add sheets.

  2. Drag your drawings onto the drop zone, or click to browse. The wizard reports how many files are staged.

    Staging files in the publish wizard Step 1. Files are staged, not published — nothing reaches the register until the last step.

  3. Click Next to version set. Give the bundle a name under Type name and set the issuance date.

  4. Click Next to sheet numbers. The wizard shows the number it read from each title block. Correct any it misread.

  5. Click Next to titles and tags. Review the titles, and set the discipline and tags for the set.

  6. Click Publish sheets. You are returned to the register with the new sheets in place.

Tip: a sheet the wizard could not read is flagged rather than dropped. Give it a number by hand at step 4 and it publishes with the rest.

When a file is turned away

If a file is not a drawing — a spreadsheet dropped in by mistake — the wizard names it and says why, and stages the rest. One bad file does not cost you the good ones: the drawings that were readable still publish.

Supported formats
