Hi,
Does anybody know how to do this? I currently have been able to line
the sheet up with the entities, but would like to know what I need to
do to link the two. The help files do not document this very well.

Thanks,
Leslie

Leslie,
On the Layer configuration page, there is a column for "Link to Sheet".  Is this what you are looking for?  I guess I don't see why clicking "Link to Sheet" for layer 16 doesn't do what you need.

Allen,
I see the "Linked To" Collumn on the far right hand side of the View Configurations of the dialog box. What I am trying to arrive at is an assembly pdf that will contain the company format instead of just the pcb design. I dont see that clicking on the Linked To for Mechanical 16 locks it in place to the drawing sheet. Not a show stopper, just another annoyance.
 
Thanks,
 
Leslie

I figured it out. The ? in the corner of the dialog explains it a little clearer. Desired result is obtained.
Thanks,
Leslie
