actually tried to understand the issue.
so if
"...1.5mm in width for a line that should have 190mm."
this would mean, that the printer always misses 0.7894737% of the X value (1.5/190=0.007894737) right?
If so, adding 0.7894737% of the X value of all points of lines may fix this for lines??
But what about circles/arcs? Wouldn't that mean that the length from the center of the circle to the left border/line of the circle have to be a different value than the lenght from the center to the right border/line of the circle???
