    Scaling of images

    In AutoCad I draw all the time, in millimeters, so what model should I use since I always make the numbers of bigger goal in drawing.

    1:10 = 1 cm
    1:100 = 10 cm
    1:1000 = 1 m

    ?????

    I know you "represent" in 1:1 and scale down before you print.

    What is the objective to the figures, if you draw a line of 100 mm ? By "clever" writing accounts always in 1:1 in model space and scale before printing.

    I think it is, I draw a line eg: 1000 mm, for it puts me on target goal that is too small, so I have to edit them (the figures) so that could see more of them in printing.

    Something else.

    I can scale from centimeters to millimeters, which makes it reversed mm to cm scale?

    If it is because the objective can not be read by the printer, you can:

    Changing the format / text style and then set the height to 0 for the textstyle using the objective. In the menu modify the dimension of the tab, you then set 'text' height to 2.0 and the 'fit' enable use overall scale to the desired scale.

    I think I understand your last question.

    Alternatively, there are also command dimscale. About just remember text... I can not remember (unfortunately forced onto MicroStation). If you scale by a factor of 10 cm to mm, you must scale with 1 / 10 to go from mm to cm.

    I made a template in mm and now it works. Done fix with scaling. Thank you frnd.
