Paper Space in Your CAD Standard

I encourage you to include a brief comment on MS and PS in your standard.

Some of the Paper Space and Model Space issues you may want to define include:

What do you draw in Model Space and what goes in Paper Space Layouts? Some may think that one object goes in one place and another thinks just the opposite. You may want a large list, if you have a lot of problems in this area. Or you may want to just list a few.

Dimensions? Where do they go – there might be a debate among your users as to where dimensions are supposed to be located. I have heard powerful arguments for either location. Some may even split where some dims go between both MS and PS.

Text? Some belongs in MS and some in PS – right? Well some may feel that none should go in MS. None at all. Others may argue for a split. You should define that split.

Callouts? Some of the software tools only work in one Space and not the other.
