johnny Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Is there a way to scale a PDF of a drawing which contains only dimensions of walls etc on a 30 deg angle? Am I forced to find 90 degree dimensions to use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill_Emery Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I generally use a polyline box to reference the size of a dimension on an image or a PDF. Rotate the PDF to get an orthogonal line you can measure. Then use the box to establish the ratio, and then transform/replicate using the resize option in the DBX.

glennw Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Johnny, If I understand you correctly. As Bill said, use Resize in the Transform/Replicate tool. Draw a cad line over a known wall length. The Resize factor is the distance shown in the .pdf divided by the length of the cad line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
