Mel Herrell Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 I have a dwg sent to me i think it was in metric they provided no scale I need to have it in units of feet, inches. one distance that came with the dwg shows as 111 996 another dim that i know from another dwg at scale of 1=20 measures about 24'-6 that dim shows as 7-5/8 not sure what to do that will make the dwg work. any suggestions.

SLW210 Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 1 Meter = 39.37008 inches If you want 1 AutoCAD unit to = 1 inch scale by 39.3708 Quote
nestly Posted August 18, 2011 Posted August 18, 2011 If you received the drawing as a .dwg, post the file so we can have a look. Quote
Tankman Posted August 19, 2011 Posted August 19, 2011 Received the *.dwg file? Why not change the dimstyle and see what you find? (dim below showing the cut length for the 2" pipe). I work mostly with inches, three decimal places but, have to provide metric to some of my out of the USA clients. Quote
