Formatting for page numbering on plans is important to reduce delays in the review process.

Review the requirements for page numbering here:

• Plan Set Page Numbering Acceptance Rules

During the document render process, optical character recognition (OCR) runs to try to identify sheet numbers automatically. While OCR technology has limits, three main factors affect whether EPR can identify a sheet number properly:

• Location and Page Rotation
  • Page number must be in the bottom right hand corner of all plan sheets
• Font Style
  • Page numbers should not have anything written next to them, use the word "of" in between the numbers, or wrap onto a second line of text
  • Do not choose font formats where "1" and "L" and "l" appear exactly the same
• Sheet Number Pattern
  • Can only contain letters, numbers, dashes ( - ), underscores ( _ ) and/or periods ( . )
  • Total length must be between 2 and 12 characters (including symbols)
  • Must start with one of the following discipline letters: A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, S, T, X, Z, V, W
  • Cannot start with J, K, U, Y
  • Cannot include three or more letters in a row (for example: AA-01 is okay, but AAD-01 is not okay)
  • Cannot include four or more numbers in a row (for example: A-002 is okay, but A-0002 is not okay)
  • Cannot include "of" as part of the pattern (for example: 1 of 8 is not okay)

When your review has been completed by all reviewers you will receive an e-mail notifying you to look at the Corrections Required Report and the marked up Plan Set file in Citizen Access.

Directions on how to find these files are located below:

How to find your Corrections Required Report / Plan Set

• If asked to delete a page from a plan set, please provide a blank page with that deleted page's original sheet page number so the system can note that it was taken out/deleted.

• If adding a page that was not included in the first submittal, please create a new page number for the page that is not duplicative of any initial page numbers submitted.

• If the file is larger than 400MB in size you will need to separate the document into multiple files under 400MB. The first plan set file will need to be submitted with the original submitted plan in the "resubmit" button (shown below), and if there is a new additional file plan set due to size increase during corrections a second file/volume of the plan set will need to be added by the "add" button. If you already have multiple plan files that came back with corrections to resubmit please make sure to pair up the correct files with the same page numbers correctly: File/Volume 1 pairs with Volume 1 resubmit button, Volume 2 pairs with File/Volume 2 resubmit button.

If applicants do not follow page numbering requirements (see link below), EPR's ability to automatically transfer markups may be impacted. This can result in delay of review and/or rejection of your submittal as the pages will no longer be ordered correctly for processing.
