[@gpwadstrom776]

Thanks bro!!

[@ashutoshbhakuni303]

How do I add a visual ruler to at one corner of the drawing (when I am not displaying dimensions) so that someone can match the ruler drawing in the printout with an actual ruler to confirm that the drawing has printed correctly? This is of much need in pdf too as the pdf reader doesnt show the drawing to actual dimensions at 100% zoom and it varies from one file to another.

[@seanj5249]

You draw lines on your model space and use the linear dimension command

[@srnikam5839]
