good evening to all, I use a version of autocad 2d of 2007, I wanted to know if there is a fast way to set a height of the text of the fixed quotas so that in the printed sheet I always see it equal, without having to scale according to the size of the piece I designed. same thing for line thicknesses (all, not only those of quotas). I press that to print I always use the window + "suitable to the sheet". Thank you.
 
if you draw in a2 sheet and print in a4 you cannot see the texts and lines as if you print a2 sheet in a2. However the print scale will have to be 1:1 or very similar

without entering into annotative quotas the best thing to do is to create a quota style for scale 1:1 (I use text height 3.5) then use one of the two roads:
1 change the height style size with dimscale*
2 create a quota style for each scale factor**

*This means that if drawings in scale 1:2 you will dimscale the value 2 and the text of the quota will be 7. in the printing phase the odds in the window 1:1 and 1:2 will be equal
** This means that you will have to change the height style each time depending on the scale of the window you will want to use to represent the listed area.

what I mean is that for the purposes of easy reading to me just see in the printed sheet (mostly a4 and a3, for larger formats actually is not the same thing) a certain size of the text of the quota, which has no relation to the size of the drawn piece. However I realized that the passage of the scale of the quotas cannot be avoided. Thank you.
 
There is no command that establishes the height of the text according to how you print it.
if drawings in a1 and dies in a3 you must change the text height of a1/a3=841/420=2.04
However, it is a big fool because it will increase the size of the text, but not the geometry represented therefore risks having a little readable design; at this point instead of drawing in a1 with scale of representation 1:5 draws in a3 using as scale of representation 1:10

in 2007 they had not yet been introduced. arrived with the release 2008

What you would have served is the annotation stairs
 
barbaric way of drawing (imho).
a drawing prints in scale, because I might have to measure what some "somaro" did not quote.
a technical design is in scale, otherwise it becomes an artistic design (a picture, a photograph, etc.)

even the annotative quotas solve the problem only partially (automatic scale of height texts and darts), but cannot intervene on the position, so it can happen that the quotas are too or too little for a suitable readability

annotative objects, though manually, can be moved according to the scale of representation. and anyway it is something I should do anyway, if I created texts and quotas to different sizes on the various layers
 
the user writes that he prints mainly in a3 and a4, if he uses the adapt to the sheet as a print option if he draws in a3 and a4 the problem does not arise.
if you find other formats means that the design to be readable needed a format not less than the one chosen. if you print it otherwise will not be readable as it should (if you use the original text you will have to strain the view otherwise if you change the text you will cover the geometry)

I repeat... is an almost useless function (in fact it is used very little).
If you say a particular at 10, you put some quotas, if you put the quoti at 100 others.
you can not quote 3 cm from a plate edge at 100. you have to quote them at 10 (otherwise you do special at 10? )
so you should not only move quotas for change of text height and notches, but also eliminate unnecessary ones to 100.
a huge uncomfortableness.
if you really do, you quote in the layout (even if it is a solution that I hate because then when you go to the model you do not find quotas)
