Hi
I currently have created a title block which is a 8.5"x11" at a scale of 1:1 (see dgn drawing).
I have been trying for awhile now to make this a 11"x17" landscape drawing at a scale of 1:1 using the stretch and scale and various commands to make this work but nothing is working. Can someone help me make this and explain to me how they did this so I can learn.
Any help would be appreciated..

Unknown said:Hello, Thanks for your reply. My original attachment was in the wrong scale it should have been in inches. What you say is exactly the problem I had with the scale command the text was not legiable. After trying your suggestion a couple of times it never seems to work correctly. Can you create the 11"x17" and 24"x 36" dgn drawing for me.Thanks
The video MWlong has done for you exactly follows my description perfectly he used overlap fence method , I prefer the clip fence but either should work.
you should not have any issues copying how the video works it especially if you print out my description and follow together.
Essentially you stretch first in one direction then stretch in another direction and use the real size polygon as a reference so you know where to stop stretching.
Now if the text is meant to stay that size I'm not sure it should, you need to consult your standards to see if it needs to scale up or then use the scale tool on just the text to just scale up the text x & y the same factor to prevent distortion.

MWlong,
Andrew redid his video shortly after I tried it .. and he reduced the file size from 45Mb ( I misread it as 45mins to download but it still took several mins) but his replacement now loads just as fast as yours...
Steve were you able to reproduce what we all suggested and also do a 24" version...?
