digital stamps

You can create two titleblocks, one with stamp and one without and then just swap them using 'select all instances when you plot or export to consultants.

That still leaves the problem of when sending the actual Revit file to consultants who are also using Revit Structure or Systems.

Good point. Just thinking about export to ACAD.

you can't submit a 'digital' signature in most BC Municipalities,.

We have a document that says something to the effect of: "This is a reproduction of the signed document. The original signature is on file with the city".

Hi Dave,
How about this idea:
1. make a titleblock (tb) without any stamp/signature.
2. make a generic annotation family of the stamp/signature.
3. send consultants the tb without stamp/sig.
4. insert the stamp/sig as need in-house as a symbol in the tb family.
aloha,

Make the stamp annotation "shared" so that it uses the "stamp" in the project file. Have a fake/empty "stamp" family nested in the titleblock to help you locatate it in the right spot. Then your consultants just need to include their own "stamp" annotation in their project file (use same family name and make it "shared") and the titleblock you send will display their stamp in their project file.

Can you expand on the steps to get this to work?

[dbaldacchino]

A) Create a Generic Annotation family and make it "Shared".
B) Nest it in the titleblock family. Select the annoation and create a label for it so you can substitute it for any other Shared generic annotations in the project. Decide whether to make it an instance or a shared parameter.
C) Load the titleblock in the project and use it! Load as many Shared Generic Annotations as you want and you can substitute them in the project environment.
