In that case, can you just edit those original dimensions to something of your liking?

I am not sure what the dimension text is derived from. Is it the sketch dimension or a dimension placed in the IDW environment? If you can send me the IPT and IDW file I will have a look.

One thing that I noticed on my machine at least is that you have to set the page size right. My printer will scale print jobs to print on the page (8.5*11) so you have to make sure that the page in your IPT or IDW is set to whats loaded in the printer.

I played around with other ways to change the font size, but I didn't come up with any.

Easiest way to fix this is when you're in the .idw put down your first line of text, right click on it and then go to edit text style. From here you can change the size and font of the text. This will update all added text after this. (I'm working in inventor 2013)
