WTF are you talking about?
First, please refrain from using all caps; it's harder to read, and usually implies SHOUTING.
Second, we are not mind readers; if you don't explain what package you are using, we're not going to bother to guess.
Third, please refrain from multiple postings. IF you must, you can Red Flag your previous posting, which appears to be about the same subject.

Morales68, this question has been answered in the ACAD forum manytimes, do a search. I have personally answered this question but that was a long time ago and I think that my answer is still in the ACAD forum.

I was looking thru my past replies and could not find my old answer. So, here we go:
Scaling drawings in ACAD goes back to the fundamentals.
Draw the object to its actual dimensions in model space (MS). In layout and paper space folder, open a view port and do a Z>A to see your drawing done in MS. The drawing you see is unlikely to be in the scale that you want it to be. To scale that drawing you have to know what they call a scale factor and this is how you get it.
let's the scale that you want is 1/8" = 1'
this is equivalent to 1/8"=12"
hence, scale factor(SF)will be 8*12=96 字串6
Now make sure that while in layout the bottom folder in on model space, then type Z>S>1/96nX and enter the drawing will then be scaled to 1/8"=1'. You can do a test and let's that an aspect of the object has a dimension of 2" in paper space,when you switch to model space it will be 16'when you do a DI. That same principle applies to whatever scale you select either in imperial or metric.
A short cut would be to use the Viewport toolbar when in layout. In the toolbar, select the scale that you want (1/8"=1') or you may have to enter your own decimal value derive from the reciprocal of the scale factor, the drawing will automatically be to scale. Be sure to switch back to paper space folder afterward so as not to mess up the scaled drawing.
