Hi, my question will probably rattle some Reviters, but here goes: I've been asked to model a house & produce 1:100 drawings of the usual plans, elevations, & sections. My employer has all the details already set up in sheets in AutoCAD (ready to go) and wants me to put callouts on my drawings to reference his details. How do I go about this???!!! Can I make my own callouts that can accept inputs ? Please help. Thanks

nextvkin.

If you are using his sheets completely ... that is not importing his views and placing them, then just create fake sheets.  Make your callouts in REVIT and place them on these fake sheets in the proper order to match the real sheets.  You don't need to compose these or even care how the views look.  You just need them to reference correctly.

Now you can have a real drawing schedule too.
