Setting up a CAD file for printing or publishing (to PDF or any other media type) is usually done by creating layout sheets that have a defined paper size and host view(s) to the model space together with other information (annotations, plan footer etc.).

The scale of the model views displayed in a layout sheet is specified as a property of the viewport so that you operate with precise scale all the time.

For doing…

In the video tutorial "2D drafting with coordinates", Suzanne Smith describes different methods to draw objects using the command window for coordinate value entries.

With absolute or relative x,y(,z) coordinates and/ or angles you can draw nodes and segments of objects very precisely.
Also, polar coordinates provide an option to specify new points using a distance and an angle.

Combined with the object snap…

That will be the preferred option especially for…
