HDEAR Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Hi folks, I have been given a dimensioned detail DWG drawing which has come in as a 1:1 model. I need to be able to put this onto our client's A1 drawing sheet ( Layout ). What's the best way to go about this so the drawing and dimensions scale down to the layout sheet? Thanks in anticipation.

Malcolm Crowe Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Hi Harley, Has this drawing been fully dimensioned within "Model Space"? If that is the case, it might be best to use "Paper Scale" within "Paper Settings" to resize your Client's drawing Frame and Title Block to fit around what you have received (all within Model Space). If the drawing wasn't fully dimensioned in Model Space, I would recommend using a "View Port" (with a reduced View Scale) in "Layout Space" (at the normal Paper Scale of 1:1). Email me the DWG if you want me to check. Malcolm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HDEAR Posted August 1, 2023 Author Share Posted August 1, 2023 Thanks Malcolm. I sent you the file. Looks like it was dimensioned in model space. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Crowe Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Hi Harley, A demonstration video has been sent to you, based on what I described above (Paper Settings in Model Space). Malcolm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
