Insert Blocks
When you insert a block, you create a block reference and specify its location, scale, and rotation.
You can specify the scale of a block reference using different X, Y, and Z values. Inserting a block creates an object called a block reference because it references a block definition stored in your current drawing.
Insert a Drawing File as a Block
When you insert an entire drawing file into another drawing, the drawing information is copied into the block table of the current drawing as a block definition. Subsequent insertions reference the block definition with different position, scale, and rotation settings.
