It is a Civil Roads Drg so it has a vertical 1/100 and horizontal 1/400 scale. I am looking to convert it to 1/1 metric. any ideas   Replies: Posted By: Ron C Date Posted: 15.Oct.2010 at 20:12 You should look at making a block out of the entire drawing and inserting it into a new drawing.  AutoCAD allows you to scale a block at insertion in both x and y directions.  After you have positioned the block, explode it. ------------- RDC
