Measuring tool: this point cannot be selected because it is in a different scale. How to find the embedded scales?

[us50558087]

Hi all,

I am using the measuring tool in a pdf drawing. It doesn't work, because apparently different areas have different scales set. How can I make these areas visible and find the scales that are set in the drawing?

With kind regards,

Fred

Hi Fred,

Sorry for the delay in response.

Would you please visit this link: Grids, guides, and measurements in PDFs, Adobe Acrobat DC  and let us know if that helps.

Check "Create ruler guides" section.
