I need a lisp which will draw a rectangle according to a given page size (Like ISO A4, A3, A1) in both landscape and portrait format. Please help me.

You can use this as a start:

; Draw an ISO Format (04-VII-2012)
(defun c:DISOF( / listSize size poz  )
(if (and (not (initget "A4 A3"))
         (setq size (getkword "\nFormat [A4/A3]: "))
         (not (initget "Portrait Landscape"))
         (setq poz  (getkword "\nPozition [Portrait/Landscape]: ")))
 (progn
  (setq listSize (nth (abs (- 4 (atoi (substr size 2))))
                      '((297.0 210.0) (420.0 297.0))))
  (if (= poz "Portrait") (setq listSize (reverse listSize)))
  (command "_RECTANGLE" "_non" '(0.0 0.0) "_non" listSize)
 )
)
(princ)
)

The following program will draw the sheet of paper assigned to the current layout, based on the current plot settings for the layout:

 

(defun c:drawpaper ( / l h w )
   (setq l (vla-get-activelayout (vla-get-activedocument (vlax-get-acad-object))))
   (vla-getpapersize l 'w 'h)
   (command "_.rectang" "_non" '(0.0 0.0) "_non"
       (if (member (vla-get-plotrotation l) '(0 2))
           (list w h)
           (list h w)
       )
   )
   (princ)
)
(vl-load-com) (princ)

  (command "_RECTANGLE" "_non" '(0.0 0.0) "_non" listSize)

Thanks this is what I need. But it will be very useful if you kindly add A0 and A1 size with it.

I was hopping that you will try to edit it by yourself. Hint, please pay attention that need to add tem in order, A2, A1 and A0.

I have tried it. Please check..

 

(defun c:DISOF( / listSize size poz  )
(if (and (not (initget "A4 A3 A2 A1"))
         (setq size (getkword "\nFormat [A4/A3/A2/A1]: "))
         (not (initget "Portrait Landscape"))
         (setq poz  (getkword "\nPozition [Portrait/Landscape]: ")))
 (progn
  (setq listSize (nth (abs (- 4 (atoi (substr size 2))))
                      '((297.0 210.0) (420.0 297.0) (594.0 420.0) ( 841.0 594.0))))
  (if (= poz "Portrait") (setq listSize (reverse listSize)))
  (command "_RECTANGLE" "_non" '(0.0 0.0) "_non" listSize)
 )
)
(princ)
)

On a purely practical observation, those are actual sheet sizes and do not have the usual framing offset margin of 15mm. If you try to use those sizes for drawing frames, then you will never be able to plot the drawings with the frames showing to your required scaling.

Hi Eldon. Sorry for late reply. You are absolutely right. We have to deduct 20mm from the original paper size..

The above code can be adjusted to draw the inner rectangle too:

; Draw an ISO Format (08-VII-2012)
(defun c:DISOF( / listSize size poz border )
(if (and (not (initget "A4 A3 A2 A1 A0"))
         (setq size (getkword "\nFormat [A4/A3/A2/A1/A0]: "))
         (not (initget "Portrait Landscape"))
         (setq poz  (getkword "\nPozition [Portrait/Landscape]: ")))
 (progn
  (setq listSize (nth (abs (- 4 (atoi (substr size 2))))
                      '((297.0 210.0) (420.0 297.0) (594.0 420.0) (841.0 594.0) (1189.0 841.0)))
        border   20.0)
  (if (= poz "Portrait") (setq listSize (reverse listSize)))
  ;;; outer rectangle
  (command "_RECTANGLE" "_non" '(0.0 0.0)
                        "_non" listSize)
  ;;; inner rectangle
  (command "_RECTANGLE" "_non" (list border border)
                        "_non" (list (- (car  listSize) border)
                                     (- (cadr listSize) border)))

  (command "_ZOOM" "_E")
 )
)
(princ)
)

Thanks, Mircea.

I can use this in my customize template.

Le code ci-dessus peut également être ajusté pour dessiner le rectangle intérieur :

hello
thank you for your work...
Would it be possible to insert the iso format where the cursor is?
please
Thanks

If this might interest you, try this. This is for a metric system with multiple sizes of A4.

The first use can be confusing, but don't hesitate to move the pointer, if you don't see anything change scale with the + or - keys, or zoom / zoom out with the wheel.

Lines 157 and 158 can be commented out if you want to do other things with the data or continue with your own code... 

(defun des_vec (lst col / lst_sg)
  (setq lst_sg (list (cadr lst) (car lst)))
  (setq lst (cdr lst))
  (while lst
    (if (cadr lst)
      (setq lst_sg (cons (cadr lst) (cons (car lst) lst_sg)))
      (setq lst_sg (cons (last lst_sg) (cons (car lst) lst_sg)))
    )

  )

This is great, thanks
The only downside is that we don't control the insertion point, otherwise great work
Do you think you could modify this?
That would be cool

sorry I didn't see the move function
the letters "R" and "M" are not highlighted that's why
