Thank you "The Boss." What I can do is copy & paste from the PDF into DeltaCad. And, I can print from the PDF to any scale I wish, as long as the paper is large enough. And, I can copy & paste the door or doors from the PDF into Infranview, create a JPEG or BMP and then import that image into DeltaCad. What I cannot do is get the doors to measure 30" x 96" from outside to outside once I get it into DeltaCad. I have come close, as close as 30-1/2 x 96 but I have not got it perfect yet. Basically what I am trying to do is what is being done in the 6 inch ruler video tutorial. But in that video they are going from larger to smaller and I want to go from smaller to larger. Thanks again Boss.
PS: This has got to be a stupid question but I'm going to ask it anyway. In the Forum, what is a "Signature."

The Signature is whatever you want included at the bottom of all of your posts. (see mine below) It can be created/edited in your User CP.

Thank you, that is exactly what I am trying to do. I know you put a lot of time into this and I really do appreciate it. You are right about the arcs being drawn to curve from one door to the next as though they are continuing the arc. They do not look good drawn as is. I will bring this to the designers attention and I am sure changes will be made. If it is not to much trouble I would love to have the DC file, email it at your convenience. I have been working with the video, 'Scale your drawing to exact specifications' without success. My top horizontal red line in the small rectangle, always falls short of the top blue horizontal line in the large rectangle. I think the part that is throwing me is the "ratio" part. I will not give up until I get it. It is so nice now knowing that when I run into problems I have a place to go and get some help. I've read just about every post in this forum already and you guys are just soooo darn smart.
