solid export scale problem

Hello everyone,
As from title, I have problems exporting a solid, as it always creates different scales!!
I press that I use inventor 2012, but I am at first arms and I know it really very little !!!
I always use powershape, or autocad 2012.
Now I've been through files in .ipt, so I open them with inventor.
However, when the export in .iges or dwg, it creates files with a different scale!!
in dwg, I climb them down by 1/10 , i.e. a 250mm cube turns it into 25mm, while in .iges I take it to 317.50mm (a somewhat strange scale !!! )
I tried to search in the menus, but I don't find any "icon" with " options" or similar, so nn I can find where to set the various stairs!

Can you help me? ?

In addition, do you know why I try to save in .step, it always gives me error when I open that file with powershape?? (this also does it with the sent files of the customer, while from other customers who use other software and always save in .step, I open them quietly. While those saved by me, or by him with inventor, are always files that I can't open . )


Thank you very much for your help!

:finger::finger:
 
Can no one help me??? :36_1_4:
No!

At least, I don't really... I tell you what I would do, or I would check on document settings the units of measurement in inventor [mm]; the settings of the tup file model autocad; Obviously the import settings of the programs you use. I tried to export to dwg but it's okay...
your 317.5mm is creepy, I suppose it has to do with your thumbs (25" -> 635mm /2 = 317.5mm) but as you jump out I don't know.

I hope I've been useful to you even though I don't think I've succeeded.
 
Thank you very much!
but where do I find this "document settings "?? ? ?
I can't find it in any curtain!!!! :frown:
 
It's as big as a house:wink:
tool tab-> document settings-> unit
I'm sorry, but I still can't find that command.
These are the inventor screens, one with the open curtain by clicking on the "inventor" icon on the top left, and the other normal!
Where do I find that comnado?
inventor (Medium).webpinventor 2 (Medium).webp
 
I thought it was the same thing!

So, as inventor fusion, can't you do what I asked??
 
no, unfortunately normal inventor I don't have it!! :
fusion, I installed it in automantic with autocad 2012, which was included in the installation package, and as I wrote, I only use it to open .ipt files that powershape (software I use habitually) does not open .
then use it only as file converter :-(
