If you plotting from paperspace,

set LUPREC to 8 and check your viewport custom scale.

In Plotdialog check Plot scale

And at last, theck your printer setting and don't use "fit to paper".

Please set your pagesetup to 'DWG to PDF.pc3', then plot a pdf, check the pdf or share DWG+PDF with us.

@Anonymous

first you got some answers yesterday >> here << and if it still not OK you should continue in your first thread (next time ok? )

now if you plot from model space? then the plot scale ratio for 1:600 should be 1.8 = 1 which means 1.8mm is equal to 1 meter but i did not try it and i know that 1=1 is 1:1000 and 2=1 is 1:500

if you plot from layout and it's defined in mm? then the viewport scale should be 1.8xp and the plot scale is 1=1
