Hi there,

I am a technical teacher in Glasgow using AutoCAD 2002. Does anyone know
where I can get current details for drawing standards in the UK? I used to
have a copy of B.S. 308 which gave me the appropriate information, however I
have misplaced it after several house and school moves. The British
Standards site is not much help!

Thanks

I thought the current "standard" was BS 8888 : 2004 (aka, four fat ladies
;-) )

Although it's open to debate how many people actually use it.
I for one won't be using a ',' for a decimal point in place of '.' or a '.'
for the thousand sepatator in place of a ',' !!
