Dimension Scaling Problem

A little bug with a quick fix.  From revit structure, exporting a sheet to autocad 2007 and then opening with autocad 2009 we found that one (not all) of the viewports had the dimension text very small (scaled to MS scale, not to PS viewport scale) and changed from feet-inches to decimal inches.  Our quick fix was to export to autocad 2000 and then open in autocad 2009 and it is all better.

This image is the S202 sheet, exported to both autocad 2007 & 2000 and opened in autocad 2009.

Just to confuse matters though both file formats are fine if opened in autocad 2007.
