[Qgis-user] Geospatial PDF Not Measuring Distance Properly

[g_lee at DCSdigital.ca]

Hello Andrea:

Thanks for getting back to me.

The output coordinate system of the contour map was when it was generated in
PIx4Dmapper was NAD83(CSRS)/UTM zone 17N (EPSG #2958).

When I bring it into QGIS (version 3.40.1-Bratislava), the coordinate system
is set to EPSG: 2958 in QGIS.

How do I tell the Measure Tool in Adobe Acrobat Reader is set to measure?

I looked through the preferences in Adobe Acrobat Reader and I don't see a
setting to measure Ellipsoidal distances or Cartesian distances.

Best,

Grayson

Hi Grayson,
what is the map's CRS? Was the Measure Tool set to measure Ellipsoidal
distances or Cartesian distances? If the former, what is the feature's
Cartesian distance?

Regards.

Andrea
