2.Select a template drawing from which to start.

 Template drawings are drawings that have been saved in the template drawings folder and already have entities such as page borders, layouts and viewports added to them.

3.Click [Next >]

4.Select boundary settings. Create Model Space Boundaries. The Model Space Boundaries function takes two arguments, the Model Space Text Height and the desired Printed Output Text Height. Using these two variables in conjunction with the size of the Viewports in each Layout to create  boundary rectangles in the Model space. Each boundary is accompanied by a text description that describes the Viewport and  to which the boundary applies as well as the text heights and scale factor.

Note: You can add Model Space Boundaries later using the Drawing>Format>Model Space Boundaries ... function
