Changing dimensions

[asomaninana78]

I imported a drawing from a pdf to AutoCAD but the dimensions are in kilometers. how do i convert them to millimeters?

Hi,

command: SCALE

1 Kilometer is 1000000 Millimeter, that's the factor to scale your object(s)

sure but how do i do it. because when i export it to revit  it tells me that the dimensions are too big to work with

So you have a REVIT import problem: ask in the REVIT forums on how to fix that.

In AutoCAD, open a DWG file with it's DWGUNITS command settings set to mm first before you re-import your PDF: I suspect your initial mistake was you started with a kilometer DWG file. OR you seriously have a REVIT import problem, again, to be solved in the REVIT forums.
