One of my colleagues who works mostly in AutoCAD challenged me recently with a difference in text size seen in our drawings produced in AC and in VW.
We have a number of text styles set up and let's say we are looking at 2.5 mm text. When I measure a capital letter in AC at 1:100 it says 250 and 2.5 in a Viewport/ Layout. I have a 2.5 mm text style set up in VW as well. I create my text/ annotation in SLVP Annotation mode. It's assigned to a class that uses my 2.5 mm text style. When I measure the same text in a SLVP, it reads 177 at scale 1/100.

Hi All,
One of my colleagues who works mostly in AutoCAD challenged me recently with a difference in text size seen in our drawings produced in AC and in VW.
We have a number of text styles set up and let's say we are looking at 2.5 mm text. When I measure a capital letter in AC at 1:100 it says 250 and 2.5 in a Viewport/ Layout. I have a 2.5 mm text style set up in VW as well. I create my text/ annotation in SLVP Annotation mode. It's assigned to a class that uses my 2.5 mm text style. When I measure the same text in a SLVP, it reads 177 at scale 1/100.
Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?
