The document provides guidelines for selecting views in orthographic projection drawings. It discusses selecting the front view with the longest dimension as width. Adjacent views should be in their natural positions and have the fewest hidden lines. A minimum number of views representing major features is preferable. Views should fit the drawing space and not be redundant. Examples demonstrate proper view selection techniques.
