Revit DWG coming into Illustrator at wrong scale

[Anonymous]

Hi, 

When I export to 2004 DWG from Revit and open in Illustrator the scale is mammoth. I have checked the DWG settings in REvit and can't figure it out. Must be something very small I am overlooking. 

Thanks in advance.

I replied with this at your AUGI post:

I'm not sure I understand what you have done. If you exported from Revit to DWG and then imported the DWG into Illustrator I think you'll need to make sure you export from a Sheet View so the scale will be 1:1 with a viewport at the view scale on the sheet. This way you should be able to import the DWG and maintain its "size".

If you are exporting from a model view to DWG then you are creating a 1:1 (full size) export of the building, drawing is in model space, not a scaled down sheet representation.
