IP, Input P1 and P2
This command establishes new or default locations for the scaling
points P1 and P2. P1 and P2 are used by the Scale (SC) command
to establish user-unit scaling. You can also use IP in advanced
techniques such as printing mirror-images, enlarging/reducing
drawings, and enlarging/reducing relative character size, or changing
label direction (see the previous discussion in this chapter).
