conversion stl

[adrieva]

I am using inventor 2011 and I need to convert solid models to stl to send them to a prototype machine. it happens to me that once the model is converted, the dimensions are scaled by 10...for example: a detail of 80x80x4 becomes in stl 0.8x0.8x0.4. with inventor 2010 this problem was not there. Do you have any news on how to solve it?

Of course it's not a little, for someone who doesn't show up and at his first post asks a question not quite banal;
I can't answer you exactly, however, I throw it there, try to see if in "document settings" you have units set in centimeters...

I didn't show up... I'm not really new to this forum, even if I hadn't been there for two years now
Anyway, I solved it. ..when I make 'save copy with name' and 'stl' format selection, you have to check in the conversion settings the measuring unit...in my case it was selected cm and not mm :-(
