How do I turn off an "Embedded Scale Ratio"?

I am working on a plan take off and have set the scale to 1/4" - 1'.  The dimensions keep reverting back to an "Embedded Scale Ratio".

How do I turn it off to use the proper scale I need?

      Hi kenner200096,

      Launch Acrobat

      Go to Edit > Preferences > Measuring (2D)

      Uncheck the option, Use Scale and Units from Document (when present)

      Click OK

      Let me know if this works.

      Thanks,

      Abhishek

          This works inside the drawing itself. 

          As soon as I then try to Export Measurement Markup to Excel, it reverts back to the imbedded precision. Is there a way to change this for the export to excel feature as well?
