Paperspace ordinate Dimension is different on 2 computers

[kellyd]

I ran across a new problem that i haven't seen before. I dimensioned a part in paperspace using ordinate dimensioning, its a bar 70.25" lg. another person opens the same drawing from our document management system and it shows a dimension of 8.78". I open it back up and it says 70.25". I'm baffled and would appreciate any comments you have.

Take a look at the DIMLFAC setting, it may be that the computer that is giving the bogus dimensioning is setting this value wrongly. This variable sets the scale by which Paper Space dimensions are mutliplied.

Another good reason not to dimension in Paper Space!

I am beginning to agree with that..Models and dimensions belong in the same space..this is a weird one..btw its a 2004 drawing.

The way I set drawings up is that I have a Model FILE and a Sheet FILE, so you can draw you model that can be XReffed into other drawings and it is also Xreffed into its own Sheet file and the notes are added there.

Is the origin for Paper Space the same on both computers, or is that different as well (if it is the same, then it is probibly the DIMLFAC variable like was mentioned earlier)
