   Hi - having problems bringing in company specific layout templates to drawings.  

In short when I insert a template layout parts of it scale down to a factor of 25.4.  These include a frame, text, line but not a table (nb I have just created a new one with minimul text and tables in and it still does the weird scale down).

I'm sure this must be something to do with a setting I don't know I have activated / need to activate.

Units are set and the template doesn't have blocks in (at the moment).  It only seems to happen when I have opened a drawing - other employees do not get this problem, but if I save, it then occurs to their drawings.  

Any ideas, help greatfully received.  

On another sort of associated point, I frequently cannnot select text, object etc in layouts (to move, delete).  The way around it it to select all, move everything, then undo.  This then allows things to be selected, as you can imagine fairly tideous.
