how to create a title block

You can use the standard title block supplied with ProfiCAD or create your own.

standard title block supplied with ProfiCAD

Title blocks (TB) are created by command File - New Title Block.

You can edit existing TB by opening (File - Open Title Block)  a file with .ptb extension. These files should be in the _TB folder in the symbols library.

TB is made up of graphical objects - lines, rectangles texts etc. It is possible to insert an image (for example with the comapny's logo). TB should be created symmetrically by the drawing area axis, similarly as symbols.

Texts can contain a placeholder part, which is replaced with the actual data from the document from the summary info. The placeholder part is demarcated by symbols { and }.

For example in text

Created by: {author}

the placeholder area will be replaced with the "author" item from the summary info.
