Additional Resources
  • Client-provided floor plan located in project folder in Box
Directions
  1. Begin with page 3 (the letter-sized page). Determine which page size to use for a floorplan:
    • Place the client-providing floor plan into the frame on the layer named 1: Original Company Floor Plan.
      • File > Place; Select the file and check the “Show Import Options” box. This will allow you to select the page you need from a multi-page document.
    • Adjust the size so that it fills the frame with the floor plan.
  2. Find the text frame with “Conference Room 000” and drag it around to a few rooms on the plan. If it fits comfortably within a room’s walls, continue with the letter-size page. If it doesn’t, repeat the placing and sizing of the floor plan on the tabloid-size page.
  3. Lock layer 1: Original Company Floor Plan to avoid accidental movement of the image.
  4. Select layer 1: Page/Building Name, and update the building name and floor at the top of the page.
    • If you have multiple floors, make sure you label each floor at the top of the page.
