    Hi,

    I'm having difficulty. I'm creating a drawing using metres in the Unit box. Everything I've drawn is to a 1:1 scale.
    I have created a layout with the layout manager, stating it will be printed as an A2 and i have associated it to the layout. I have then allocated a scale of 1:500 on the viewport to get a scale, but it is giving me very strange sizes.
    I have just printed the same drawing as 2:1 and it is pretty much to the scale of 1:500, how is this happening?
    I have looked up forums and they suggest things about INSUNITS and _MEASUREMENT but I don't know will that help me??

    I'd suggest to use cadtutor.net forum for that type of questions and read this:
