The global region controls the overall dimensions of the plot, and is a required element. The drawing sub-regions for the various plot types must be specified based on the global region. The drawing sub-regions should exclude the areas used by title blocks. Multiple regions can be configured alongside eachother on the same plot.
All subsequent items on the Global page are optional.

Plot Limits - Top, Right, Bottom and Left |
Set the overall plot limits in 10th mm.
A page size of 11000 wide and 8000 high is a good default, as these dimension are the nominal size of an A0 sheet in 0.1mm. The bottom left corner of the sheet is taken as 0, 0 and the top right corner as 11000, 8000.

Sheet files can be created at any sheet size, and will be scaled to the desired sheet size when running the Generate Plot routine.
Note that all measurements entered in a sheet file are in 10ths of a millimetre, except where specifically indicated. Text heights will be correct for the original sheet file size but will change when the sheet file is scaled to fit other paper sizes when generating a plot.
