LaserCut 5.3 help

[Bruce Dorworth]

Ok, When I load a dxf in LaserCut that is 15"x12" it comes out as 15mm x 12mm. It worked before, but now that I re-loaded LaserCut it's doing this. Where is the setting I need to change??

Thanks in advance,
Bruce

Everything I import into Lasercut 5.3 is in mm. I have never had inches work. I just scale it up in my CAD program (x 25.4) then save as a dxf file. You can also scale the image in Lasercut 5.3.

You have top size it up. In [DRAW][SIZE] multiply the X by 25.4 and put the new value in, then click the ... on the Y axis to give you the same resize.

If you just change the page setup to mm in the setup option in Coreldraw, all the dimensions automatically change in your drawings. You dont need to scale anything up. Once you have done that, you can then export a DXF out of Coreldraw and then import in LaserCut. Now your dimensions will be ok,
