Viewportscale field publishes/ plots ###### in dwf and also even if I send it straight to the plotter. It displays fine in plot preview but does not plot properly for some fields e.g. 3/32" = 1'-0" will plot ######## but 6" = 1'-0" will plot perfectly. I realize that it is similar to excel's long numbers in a narrow column issue, just widen the column and the numbers will print as seen on the screen. Is there a similar option in AutoCAD fields. Thanks for any help.

Hi

For starters look at system variable FieldEval and the _.UpDateField command.

Have a good one, Mike
