HI i am just a bit annoyed at your reply the user CAD observer asked a question on HOW TO SCALE A PDF, and did not mention anything about printing, this user further went on and described what have been done so far which was just attach PDF underlay,But somehow you have managed to confused a scaling question for a print question which i think is pretty noobish of you, the question is how can i scale a pdf to 1:100 AND your reply was 'printing could stretch out a pdf drawing' what about if it was never printed??? Argh some people. When using a PDF as a underlay background, to set the PDF to the proper scale I take a know line in the PDF and use the SCALE command to set it to the correct length.ie; if the PDF line is supposed to be 14' long, select the PDF, start the SCALE command, select one end of the line, hit 'R' and enter (to set reference length), pick one end then the other end of the line, and then enter the known dimension of the line (in this case 14').ps. It seems most times it works out to a scale factor of 48 or 96 for 1/4' and 1/8' scale PDFs, this can be set when initially attaching the PDF or by selecting the PDF and using the properties pallet.
