imbed scale in PDF created with Microvellum

WadeButler

Looking for direction (or ideas) on how to have the drawing scale imbedded into a pdf when creating the pdf from microvellum.

Currently, our team is exporting pdf pages of microvellum drawings and the scale is non existant in the pdf.

With multiple different scales in the drawings set we are having to add a scale to each individual page, which is cumbersome.

Hi WadeButler

If the scale isn’t being embedded during the Microvellum PDF export, I’d first check the print/export and viewport scale settings in Microvellum.

For drawings with multiple scales, setting them in Bluebeam page by page can become tedious. Ideally, the scale should be carried over from Microvellum so Bluebeam can recognize it automatically.

Thank You

Related, but not specific to Microvellum. It would be nice if scales are automatically identified from drawings with published scales and would prompt you to select which scale if a drawing has multiple.

Is this possible @Dhanush Kodi Raj? I don't know that I've ever received a PDF with the scale set at printing by the software. In full disclosure I don't generate PDFs from Microvellum or any other CAD software.
