I just started with LibreCAD yesterday and joined today (May 18,21) Looking to use this for CNC wood carving.  

And, of course, I already have a problem I don't understand.  

I grabbed a DXF and edited it to suit me, then saved it, and opened it with some CAM tools.  The simplest view is with a tool called CAMotics which opens the DXF, but I have used other tools showing the same problem.  

My design is 1.5 to 5.5 aspect ratio (I'm using inches).  But the saved results wants to start the CNC about 2"/51mm lower on my y axis ( off the wood I want to carve).  How do I move the Y axis starting point.   I'm not really sure what to look for in the settings and manual to see how to change this.
