Andrew, Thanks for the tip. It removes the need for an external calculator, that's great. But it is still needed to measure the actual size of the object before scaling. What is, in my opinion, very "user-friendly" in the Inkscape approach, is that the size fields in the upper toolbar have 2 uses : ...

If you know how to compile Qcad, you can edit these two files :
qcad-2.0.5.0-1-community.src/qcadlib/src/engine/rs_units.cpp
qcad-2.0.5.0-1-community.src/qcadlib/src/engine/rs.h
Make a string search for "Tabloid" for example and add your own paper sizes the same way. Then re-compile Qcad.
