Howdy!
I am just learning Dia and was about to try my hand at making some
shapes. I notice the shapes I have used in Dia are very large, the
borders are very thick at 0.1cm and the font is also large at 22.68pt
(5/16").
As I make my shapes, I would want to make them so they fit 9 pt font

You should probably share the files of representative shape for people to
talk sensibly about the.
Shapes are created within a 1cm square area (or were when I last tried to
make a shape). If you made them larger, then that could be the explanation.
However the shape was sized, you should be able

to create some, but if I have other questions, can we add an attachment

I've actually been working on figuring out why the shapes are coded the
way they are. I copied some into
Alex,
Very good advice on the 40%. I tried that but for my multi-page
diagram, Dia still printed the same 6 pages to pdf with the 40% part at
the upper left of each page. So I tried importing the svg into Inkscape
set to cm, but it then printed the text at 1/16" instead of 1/8"
(Inkscape do
If this is more of an svg question and not something particular to Dia,
just let me know please!
All through the sample files, the shapes have xml like this, with two
calls to ellipses, rectangles, circles:
...but I get the same effect with just one call and a thicker
stroke-width

Andrey,
Thanks! Sorry about the 'prefix' thing. It's just what I remembered

have first part of its name to indicate the sheet in which
they appear, but
