Have you verified the distance between the two points in the data view?
Also which print engine are you using? If you are using windows make
sure you don't have your print driver set to scale plots. Verify your
projection and map units.

Subject: [gislist] Scaling ArcGIS9


Hi everyone, I am back with a problem in scaling a drawing that I
thought I had solved. I established two points 1000 feet apart(on the
ground) and when I print it out on my HP 1055CM plotter, the points
measure about 2070 feet apart when I scale it with the 1" = 1000'
scale.. I know I should be able to get the entire area plotted out at
1000 scale, but I only get a portion of of it which covers the entire
page.

I have not had this problem before and I am hoping that someone out
there in answer land can help.

Here are my settings:

Page and Print Setup:

Size ANSI E - 34x44 in.
Orientation:: Portrait checked
Map page size Use Printer Paper Settings checked
Show Printer Margins on Layout checked
Scale Map Elements proportionally to changes in Page Size not checked

Data Frame Properties

General:

Name: Layers
Map: Feet
Display: Feet
Reference Scale 1:300
Rotation 0
Label Engine: ESRI Standard label Engine

Data Frame:

Extent Fixed Scale checked
1 inch = 1000 feet

Thanks in advance (TIA)
