    Smile Extracting text information from block

    Hi All,

    I'm working on Acad2006 platform.

    I've my title block with no. of attributes. I give this block to some outside agency for work.
    Now as I receive the drawing from them, it is found, some text format in the title block is changed. i.e. say some regular RomanS text is changed to Oblique RomanS text. I want to catch such instances through some AutoLISP routine.

    Can somebody help me pl.?

    Regards

    Samir

    I think you should look into Drawing Standards and not a LISP routine.

    Samir,

    The Drawing Standards feature is documented in AutoCAD's help files.
