Thank you for the response.

The method outlined seems to be for a rasterized image; I'm not able to get it to work on a vector line drawing. I only see the scale option if it's an image.
Also, this method seems to be relying on determining scaling factors, which I'm trying to avoid as that can cause issues within the 3D modeling platform, I will be using these files in.  

The AutoCAD functionality SIM to what I'm looking for is:
scale (sc)
 ->reference (r)

Someone mentioned a scale reference command "szr" in a LibreCAD forum but that command isn't available as a default in my copy of the program. That post was also oddly worded, and the poster may have been saying it as something they wish the program had. (https://github.com/LibreCAD/LibreCAD/issues/1338)
