PDF Scale

Anonymous · ‎2012-03-21

After importing a pdf using:

File-External Content-Place External content

I have been unsuccessful in properly scaling the pdf. What is the best way to do this.

I have enlarged and shrunk the pdf by trial and error (so that a known wall of say twenty feet is close) but I feel like their should be a more accurate way to do this.

Thanks in advance,

P.S I'm using Archicad 14

Ive been using free PDF to DWG converters recently. They work well in converting PDF plans into editable DWG vector files. This might be more satisfactory for rescaling.

Use the Edit>reshape>resize command, and "define graphically. Draw a line that is 20 feet long, and stretch the 20' long wall section to match your line. Does this work ok? No completely accurate, might be off by an inch or less, but it's the best way I've found.
