      Does anyone know if there is a way to align the view so that the print-out component profile dimensions are equal to those in reality? For example; If you laid out a rectangle in SketchUp, and the dimensions were 1"x1", how would i determine the right view so that the square turns out 1"x1" on printing paper? Is there a CAD program capable of this?

        http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=68460#p68460 is one way... search for 'print to scale' - there are lots of helpful suggestions...
