Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] How do I draw a file in imperial, then convert it to metric in AutoCAD?

Hey everyone,

I have got it to work!! I found out that I had to actually draw the part in
the imperial mode. As in, when you start a new blank job, you have to make
sure that you select the imperial page setup choice, rather than the metric
one.

Once I had worked that out, I just simply went into the command line and
typed in.

Scale
All
25.4

Then the measurement came out in mm, cool!

Thanks a lot guys! I got a really good response from you all.


Cheers,
