Hello,

I recently changed computer and have some setting problems with Solid Edge v.20 I draw all parts in mm. When I have saved a psm.file into DXF and open the DXF file the measurement are in inches. For example a 100mm circle is turned into a DXF file that is 100 inches. How can this be fixed?

Thanks

When opening the dxf click the options button.
Somewhere in there is a setting for conversion units that will be in inches - change it to mm.
It might be on the second or third page.
