Adding Text to Drawings
George Omura, Brian C. Benton · 2018
One of the most tedious drafting tasks is applying notes to drawing. The AutoCAD 2019 software makes this job faster by enabling readers to type their notes, insert text from other sources, and copy notes that repeat throughout a drawing. It helps readers to create professional-looking notes using a variety of fonts, type sizes, and type styles. This chapter also helps readers to learn how to control the size, slant, type style, and orientation of text and how to import text files. It shows the tools available for formatting text to fit readers' application. The chapter also helps to learn how to prepare a drawing for text, set the annotation scale and add text, explore text formatting in AutoCAD, add simple single-line text objects, use the check spelling feature, and find and replace text.
