Resizing a format

Is there a way of resizing a format? I'm in the process of putting our formats in Intralink and I've got an "A" sized format that's been defined has "B" size. I wish to fix it. Thanks
 
To create a new size format, you could do like this:


1-export all tables as tablefiles, then delete them from the format (do NOT save the format)


2 - export the format as a iges


3 - create a new format and set the correct sizer, then import the iges. Say Yes to resize to fit


4 - import the tables and place them.
(delete the white borders at the outline of the sheet)
5 Save the new format


Regards,
 
you can also add the desire format in a new sheet to your drawing, than switch all entities from the first to the second sheet and delete the first sheet
