But there is some works, that i have to do !

I have sketch with real lenghts, but i need to draw all work in scale 1:50,

in which way it is better to do ???

draw in real size in model space, and scale within viewport in paper space

Everything you draw in model space should be full size as chelsea has instructed. That's because when you switch to a layout and use a viewport (or more than one viewport) you can assign it any number of different scales depending on your needs and when it comes time to plot you do it at a scale of 1:1.

OK, you guys are too fast. I said the same thing, but you said it better.

Carry on.

My brother Kyle says to take a look at this link. It might help to explain model space / layouts / paper space /viewports.
