How do I set the scale ratio for a construction drawing?
Thanks

Hello kevin198823,

PDF files as a whole can not have a "scale ratio" - but I presume you have to make some measurements on that file - and need to e.g. callibrate the measurement tool?

And I presume these will also be useful:

Stefan

How do I use the calibration tool? When I press ctrl, shift & C it opens up the box for OCR Pages.

Thanks
Kevin

Hi Kevin,

Have you assigned any custom shortcuts?
If so - then maybe you assigned that key combination to the OCR tool as well?
Then please go to the Toolbars Customisation window - and check what shortcut you have for the "Calibrate Measurement" tool.
