nyaromulo Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 I am using AutoCAD 2008, i would like to create a text and print it at a scale of 1"=50' at a height of "1/10 of an inch" when printed. How do i do the math in order to have the correct text height on my MS? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodz0321 Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 if you want your text to print .1" then multiply your text height by the scale for 1"=50'.... .1 x 50 = 5 for 1"=100'.. .1 x 100 = 10 for 1"=30'... .1 x 30 = 3 same for other text heights... 0.12 x scale..etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
