potzer Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Every time I export from Affinity Designer as an SVG file the resulting file gets scaled up by a factor of over 4x. e.g. My document is Legal sized (215.9mm x 355.6mm) but when I open the resulting SVG file I find that it has been scaled up to 899.6mm x 1481.7mm. Since the final destination for my design is an Epilog laser cutter you can see why this isn't acceptable. Any help is very much appreciated.

Staff MattP Posted September 13, 2016 Staff Share Posted September 13, 2016 That sounds very much like your document is set as 300dpi (i.e. has been constructed for print purposes) yet SVG nominally uses 72dpi. If you set your document to 72dpi I suspect that everything will work as you'd imagine :) Thanks, Matt Alfred 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
