Probably a silly question for many, but I am trying to plot a file at 1:1000 (metric) and can't remember the command to scale a drawing in metric.
Advice?

Well if your modelspace units are mm and your layout (paperspace) units are mm, the scale is 1/1000. You can select this scale from viewport properties, or go into the viewport and do a zoom>>1/1000xp. If you have different units between MS/PS then you'll have to apply some math. Say MS is meters and PS is mm, then a viewport scale of 1:1 gives a plotting scale of 1:1000.
