    Exporting full scale .dxf from Pro-E 2.0

    Hmmm, I might as well get DraftSight. I would like to be able to verify my drawings. I have been busy working on other things and don't have time for dealing with the cutting and its reading of .dxf files. Maybe I will figure it out later on when I am less busy. Thanks for your help.

    Exporting full scale .dxf from Pro-E 2.0

    So a little update on my part. I sent the .dxf cut file to my laptop to figure out the problem. I have Pro-E wildfire 4.0 student edition on my laptop and the .dxf ended up being the right size. I then saved that .dxf to another filename and sent it to my co-worker who checked the dimensions...

It is weird because I had my co-worker re-scale another .dxf on Adobe Illustrator to create an actual scaled drawing as it...

    Exporting full scale .dxf from Pro-E 2.0

    Hello, I have been working with version 2.0 of Pro-Engineer for about 2 months now. I am trying to export a full scale .dxf from pro-e to create a cut file. I made sure to set my scale to 1 and my dxf_out_drawing_scale and dxf_out_scale_views are both set as yes in my options to create a full...
