Issuing a drawing set: the register and the contents sheet

Updated 26 October 2026 · from SiteHelm

Most mistakes on site come from someone working to an old drawing. A tidy issue, with a register of what’s current, stops that.

What goes in an issue

Check the codes

Before issuing for construction, check every sheet’s revision and status. A P revision or an S status isn’t for building from. Our guide to revision and status codes explains them.

Take the old ones out

When a new issue goes out, collect or mark the old drawings superseded. A SUPERSEDED stamp across the old sheet is quick and obvious.

In PDF Picasso

Combine drawing sets does the sorting: drop in every revision you have, and it keeps the latest of each drawing, puts them in drawing-number order and adds a contents page with drawing, revision and page. To print the set in one go, sorted by sheet size, use Batch Print.
