Overview

1. Text should be added to a drawing whenever possible.

2. This text could simply be a title and date, but could also be a parts list, a company title block, notes on costing, customer data, etc.

3. AutoCAD 2006 allows the user to enter text:

   1. as short entries, i.e. a single line or a few lines

   2. as larger entries, i.e. several lines

   3. via a table.

In this chapter we will consider the above text types as well as text fonts and styles, so:

1. Open your WORKDRG saved drawing and refer to Figure 13.1.

2. The component should be positioned as displayed relative to the point (80,110).

3. Make layer TEXT current.
