Annotative objects in AutoCAD are very powerful and extremely useful, but they can be difficult to work with sometimes. An annotative object has a predefined size that is relative to the scale of the viewport it is being displayed in. For example, annotative text styles define the "paper height" of text. This setting controls the size of the text when it is printed on paper. You can set annotative text to have a paper height of1 mm,1/8",0.1", or to any value of any unit that AutoCAD uses. Regardless of the viewport's scale, the text will be displayed and printed at the defined paper height.
