Look for the function GeneratePlot(). This function affects DWFs created from runtime maps. To change the scale units for DWFs created from the library you would have to edit GeneratePlotFromMapDefinition(). The source code is pretty similar in both. One gets the map from Session, the other gets it from Library:\\.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'>Find the lines:<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'>if ($printLayoutStr != null) {<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'> $layoutRes = new MgResourceIdentifier($printLayoutStr);<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'> $layout = new MgLayout($layoutRes, $title, MgPageUnitsType::Inches); <o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'>}<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif";color:blue'>This checks if you’re your REST request includes the path to a printlayout resource in Library:\\.
