Text Styles

Can someone please explain dimensions styles to me? The default appears to be 1/4" = 1'-0". The plan I am working on will only fit at 1/8" = 1'-0". Then my elevations will be at a different scale in order to make it fit, as usual. When I send these plans/elevations to, is the text being adjusted automatically? For example, the 1/4" scale has a text height of 6", the 1/8" has a text height of 12", how do I ensure that my text height is correct on the layout when I sent it at 1/8"? I have some down time right now and I am just trying to refine my layout sheets. I apologize if this is a confusing question.

Nope, that is your job

You look at it and adjust manually as necessary

The whole point of Default Settings and Text Defaults/Stiles is to be able to manually customize them to your liking.

Standard drafting calls for either 5/32 or 1/8 of overall scale factor for text height. I was just simply trying to confirm my suspicion that it did not scale automatically. I have been adjusting it manually but I was trying to see if there was a faster way. Sorry.
