DarrenStarr Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Importing DXF files from Autodesk Fusion 360 has a scale issue. Here is an example exported from Fusion 360 When imported into Affinity Designer, no matter what DPI I import as, the result is always ridiculously small. Here, I set the DPI to 25.4 this is because Fusion will export in millimeters As you can see, it imports the file as around 4mm x 2.661mm If I scale the document by 101.252/3.994, then the dimensions are 101.252 x 67.467mm This type of behavior is consistent from all CAD programs which export DXF in terms of millimeters. This also includes FreeCAD and others. Can you please make a setting like Illustrator has which allows you to set the import unit as 1mm? This would make everything much easier. P.S. - I absolutely love that you've added this feature. When it eventually works, I'll be able to stop filtering everything through InkScape or Illustrator.
