Abstract

A method for organizing and relating several documents, including graphic documents, allows the storing of documents in a plurality of files, and thereafter identifying specific ones of those files with a project, such as blueprint documents for the construction of a building. Documents associated with a project are related in that they may include a primary or general document, such as a general view blueprint, and secondary documents, such as detailed drawings of the primary document including sectional or end views. The secondary documents may also include textual and function files. The files are linked to one another by placing hotspots on a primary document which automatically calls up a secondary document. The hotspot is visually indicated on the primary document with a name which indicates the file of the secondary document. There may be a plurality of documents or drawings within one page file. A specified document or drawing can be identified by designating its coordinates, scale and calling file in a separate file which can be used as a hotspot.
