Correct size of Acad2004LT drawing

Correct size of Acad2004LT drawing

(OP)
After I make a drawing in Acad2004LT I need to import it to Adope Illustrator.
I start saving the drawing in Acad2000LT format but after opening the drawing in Illustrator, the size is not correct, it is scaled to 0.1536. What can be wrong?

RE: Correct size of Acad2004LT drawing

Arnex,

are you sure with the scale of 1:0.1536?
I use the *.eps export via plotter. Or you can use a pdf-file I think...

Im sure that the scale in my last drawing was 0.1536 when it was opened in Illustrator.
 If I use  a PDF, the drawing loses details, and if I use an eps plot file, some details are lost too, and the size of the drawing is restricted to the available plot area.
