Scale for Text and Symbols
For many large components or assemblies, it is necessary to scale down text
and symbols to fit them on standard paper sizes (A4, A3, A2, A1, or A0 size).
Annotations, including dimensions, symbols, and notes, can become illegible
when you view them in the model space. This session shows how you can set
the scale for the text and symbols.
