Elevations precision in AutoCAD MEP

I need help setting the precision for my BOP tags in MEP pipe 2022. I have the "property set definition" set to high precision but I want it to round off to the closets 1/8"

Basically one of our clients sent us a PDF file with all the dimensions to create what they need. They arnt responding to my attempt to get the original cad file from them and we need a cad file to load it into one of our machines to make the product.

It would be incredibly time consuming to recreate this drawing in cad. So I attempted a PDF import. Works perfectly aside for a few minor corrections I need to make. Except its not to scale. So I take a measurement and figure out what I need to scale it to inorder to get the dimensions to come out correct.

My problem is I cant get the precision to go any higher then 8 decimal places. In order to get the scale to be as accurate as I need it to be I need to be able https://xender.vip/ to multiply by 10 decimal places.

Is this possible? Ive never had to attempt to do this before. Lets be honest, 8 is usually way more then accurate.

the PDF file format has precision settings lower than CAD: sorry, you are fighting a losing battle there. What you need is the source CAD file: hope they pay their bills in better fashion than they do responding to you.
