Comments

• Incident Diagnosis :
  The scale of the generated 2D drafting view is the reverse of
  the ratio of the 3D annotation view in order to keep the same
  proportion in size between the annotations and the geometry.
  Correct Application:
  Ratio of an Annotation Generated From FTA
  "For front views, section views and section cuts, the ratio
  of the 3D annotation view is reversed and applied in the
  generated 2D drafting view.
  For aligned section views/section cuts and offset section
  views/section cuts, the ratio of the first 3D annotation view
  is reversed and applied to all the generated 2D drafting
  views".
