Is this drawing compliant? Get a branded PDF scorecard.
Upload one drawing. We check the filename, the text layer, the title block, and the freshness — and hand you back a one-page report.
Filename · Title block · Freshness
Override the filename to test against the pattern, e.g. the name you plan to save as.
Flag the drawing if its PDF metadata date is older than this.
Your PDF is streamed through our server for analysis and discarded the moment the scorecard is sent back. Nothing is retained.
What the scorecard checks
Four quick checks that catch the most common drawing-handover embarrassments.
1. Filename compliance
Tests the filename against ISO 19650-2 by default, or any custom regex you paste. Wrong naming is the number-one cause of files getting lost in a project handover.
2. Text layer present
Verifies the PDF has extractable text — the difference between a CAD-exported drawing and a scanned printout. Without a text layer, downstream tools can't read title blocks, revisions, or notes.
3. Title-block signals
Scans the extracted text for the telltale markers of a proper title block — revision codes, drawing numbers, dates, suitability codes. Catches drawings where the title block was hidden or cropped off.
4. Freshness
Compares the PDF's embedded creation/modification date to your freshness threshold. A stale drawing is often a sign that a newer revision exists but hasn't made it to the right folder.
What it doesn't check (but Foreman does)
- Zoned title-block validation. This tool looks for any title-block signals. The full product lets you pin exact zones ("the revision must be in this rectangle and match this pattern") for strict compliance.
- Metadata against the CDE. The product compares the filename-declared revision against the revision attribute stored in Autodesk Construction Cloud. Catches discrepancies this tool can't see.
- Register completeness. The MIDP / TIDP says you should have 247 drawings; the folder has 232. The product tells you which are missing and which are extras.
- Scheduled runs. Audit the whole project once a week, not just whenever you remember.
Tip. Forward the downloaded scorecard to the originator as an attachment. Much more persuasive than a message saying "your naming is wrong" — the named problems come with timestamps and recommendations.
Next step: move from one-off scorecards to continuous QA in Foreman — including metadata checks in Forma (ACC), folder-level rule sets, and scheduled checks before submission deadlines. Get started free.
