ah young kids, never had to work with an orange pre-printed border from K&E.
Ordering the titleblock mylars with stock/standard info/disclaimers was the simplest and most efficient way to do it, just like puting c3d labels in modelspace is today. You really did not want the drafties whipping out the leroy set and adding that to every border, anymore than you wanted them drawing in the company logo freehand on every sheet.
One of the fun things was getting the old single-pen HI plotter to plot the drawings in that border, and fill out the title block info. A steady hand required.... and eternal optimism that the pen wouldn't run out of ink before the plot finished racheting back and forth.
