Does anyone have any idea why whenever I try to import stuff, it comes in at the wrong scale. I've downloaded thinks off of websites and sometimes they are off by the conversion factor of metric to English. I've tried different unit settings with the templates and still get the same thing.
Now I'm trying to import some Cadkey stuff directly and the scale is really wacked out to some odd size.

Hi Jay,
I've been getting the same results on the last few files I imported. They were Mechanical Desktop .STEP files. I assumed it was the way the customer was exporting them. I could not scale them up 25.4 times either, they all failed. I told the customer what was happening and they re-sent new parts. Those new parts imported the same, but at least I was able to scale them.

Oh yeah, I'm on SWX2003 SP3.1.
Hi Ken,
FYI, my problems are with 2003 & 2004. 2003 was doing it at the 25.4 and now 2004 is something really off the wall. Kind of got me a serious situation going on here.
