Hi there,
Hoping for some advice on what the issue might be.
I am trying to get a design laser cut. The general dimensions are 450mm (wide) x 225mm (high) - I measured it with Inkscape's measurement tool. I sent it through to a laser cutting company. Somehow, it translated to (approx.) 1100mm x 690mm on their computer.
The file is in .dxf format.
I want to ensure the company cuts the right dimensions, but am unsure why this issue occurred.
If anyone has any insights, I would be most grateful.
Thanks!

Re: Scale changes when emailing .dxf
did the document originate in Inkscape or another program?
Also, please share a sample svg that has the issue.

The Inkscape manual has lots of helpful info! http://tavmjong.free.fr/INKSCAPE/MANUAL/html/
