I have added here the rule of thumb for choosing the right plot scale for a drawing in AutoCAD or IntelliCAD. Without an x or xp extension the zoom is relative to the drawing extents. One way to precisely set a viewport display magnification is to use the Scale option of the Zoom command. We can convert any type of architectural structural engineering plumbing electrical landscape or any other plan to a DWG PLT or DFX file. In a perspective view ZOOM displays the 3DZOOM prompts. Basically we dont need to worry about custom scales we can just zoom to scale in the drawing.Īutocad Scale Metric Metric Units Autocad Plot Scales for the Paper Space Zoom XP in AutoCAD and IntelliCAD.
