I am trying to import  dwg files prepared in Google "Layout". Layout allows one to export (save) as a Autocad dwg file that will open in Draftsight. The problem I am having is that when the file opens in Draftsight it is reduced to 66% of the size of the original. eg a 100mm line is reduced to 66.6R mm. The reduction in size is consistent across a number of files that I am wanting to move between the two programs so there must be a default setting in operation. Although the first time I tried this the file copied over at 100% size so I must have changed something!

Any (polite) suggestions?

A late PS: I think this is somehow related to a question I raised yesterday about setting scale dimensions. I now find that the same exported dwg file is sometimes opening in DS at the same size, and sometimes at 66% of original, apparently without me making any changes at all. Additionally changing the Scale Factor in the Drawing Settings tab doesn't always work, and I have even managed to change dimension settings on X axis lines but not on Y axis lines on the same drawing.

And if I add aligned dimensions and then either use zoom or pan, the dimension lines remain static and don't zoom and pan along with the drawing! And I cannot find any default paper sizes!! Grr!  I think I am just out of my depth with DS!
