Cati V5R20 - Drafting point

Cati V5R20 - Drafting point

Cati V5R20 - Drafting point

(OP)
Hi,
I have a Catia V5 drawing.
Please, see the lower left corner view: I'd like to get a smaller size of the points (PT V11 and PT V12). They look alright on the Catia 2D file, but for some reason, they appear too big in print (please, see the attached PDF file).
For more evidence, I have created another point at the intersection of two random lines. The point looks also, huge!
How could I do this?
I am thinking of placing a text with "x" letter on it, but I'm hoping for a better option.........

Thanks

well.. you could go and update your drafting XML standard. Once that is done, you could also update the drawing file standard.
Check the online doc for more info on drafting standard xml file, and updating CATDrawing file standard.

This XML file is usually manage by CATIa admin team. You should talk to your local CAD team for that problem.
