This tutorial web page explains how to change the scale of the balloons when imported into the revision drawing file in QA-CAD software and QA-CAD LT software. This operation is convenient to revise your PDF/CAD file with a updated version.
Basically what you need are :
1. Open the original drawing in QA-CAD and copy the drawing size information and paste it into EXCEL or other spreadsheet software.
2.Open the revised drawing in QA-CAD and copy the drawing size information and paste it into EXCEL or other spreadsheet software.
3. We calculate the ratio (how much big (or small) the revised drawing becomes than the original drawing) in EXCEL (this time, the ratio is 1.414. The revised drawing is 1.414 times larger than the original drawing)
4.Go back to the revised drawing in QA-CAD
5.Import the cvmx file from the original drawing
6.Select Scale in the Markup Menu.
7.Press Ctrl + A to select all imported balloons.
8.Then press Enter key and type the coordinate 0,0, and press the OK button
9,Type the ratio (1.414 this time) and press the OK button.
10.Balloons move to their adjusted positions if necessary. Press save markup edits.
Please note that dimensions positions in the revised drawing can be different from dimensions positions in the original drawing due to its design change.
In this case, we manually need to move the balloon to where we want to locate after we have done the above import and scale procedure.
Block Move is more convenient than single QA symbol move in some cases.
