A sheet set is an organized
collection of sheets from several drawing files.
A sheet is a selected layout from a drawing file.
Sets of drawings are the primary deliverable
for most design groups. Sets of drawings communicate the overall
design intent of a project and provide the documentation and specifications
for the project. However, managing sets of drawings manually can
be complicated and time consuming.

manage drawings as sheet sets. A sheet set is an
organized and named collection of sheets from several drawing files. A
sheet is a selected layout from a drawing file. You can import a
layout from any drawing into a sheet set as a numbered sheet.
You can manage, transmit, publish, and archive
sheet sets as a unit.
