I'm having a issue here. I have talked to my co-worker also and he did not even notice what was wrong.
Here is the picture I sent him but I high lighted what I was hoping he would noticed.
How can two different size of text be actually the same size.

OK thank you, I never knew that and have worked on AutoCAD since Acad 10
If it's a height difference from Mtext-content-internal formatting, you can see the current height anywhere in it [and compare that to the Mtext object's nominal height]: get into the Mtext editor, pick in the part you want to know about, and the ribbon will show you:
Check the property CONTENTS to see the real MText (contents) value, incl. all internal format overrides.

and if you don't' want them to be overridden, there is a handy lisp called STRIPMTEXT that set everything back to its default values.
It seems, that it doesn't make sense to be able to override the height of the MText at first look.
But it can have various text-heights within the same MText. Now you can scale the complete MText with the "global" text-height.
Unfortunately...it can get quite messy, if you get careless. (The main text-height should match the "global" text-height of the MText)

What is "global" text height and how do you use scale to match it?

Uhm...with "global" text height i meant the set height of the MText in the PROPERTIES.

Scaling to match it doesn't work.
What i tried (and failed) to say was:
With different text-heights in one MText - At first make sure that the main used text is set to the same text-height value as the MText height in the properties.
As example: I have a MText with a height of 10 and most of the text inside is also set to the height of 10. To highlight a part of the text, it is set (overwritten) to a height of 15. It has 1,5 the size of the main text.
If i now change the height of the MText in the properties to 18 the main text will be 18 and the highlighted part "scaled" to 27. It will keep the 1 : 1,5 ratio between these two.

There is also the "Remove Formatting" option in the MText editor.
Highlight the text and it's in the right click menu.
