HI

Teaching myself librecad and run into one particular problem I cant figure out.  Whenever I export my features are 50% bigger in any app I import the DXF into then the measurements I have created them in. I'm working at 1:1 creating a small design 153mm across, feature when I export are approx 225mm across.

Now this looks like a setting issue somewhere but I just cant find it

Help! getting a little frustrated with this one now.

General factor and general scale are set to 1, and everything I can see is set to mm.  I'm going to be using this to transfer to a laser cutter and accuracy is quite important as its interlocking parts.  I have left clearance in the design but not much so I dont want to just reduce it by 50%

Thanks in advance!
