I might agree, CADaver, if I expected changes to the drawing afterwards. I don't. It's just for plotting and archiving.
Still, I might scale the quadrant of drawing sheets to fit the dimensioned geometry, then position this geometry unscaled (in 2 of the sheet frames), and then scale the remaining geometry (which is purely cosmetic) down to fit the available space (in the other 2 sheet frames). This way, the critical geometry can easily be altered and re-dimensioned afterwards (which I think will never happen ... did I mention that?).
