Importing drawings into sheet cam.

Hi .I am using AD version 11 and am having trouble with exporting in DXF to Sheetcam.The drawing always comes in to small .I am drawing in inches and importing into SC in inches and it comes in much to small.Thanks for any help.

Does the part come into SheetCAM at the same scale as the AD drawing?
Meaning if the AD drawing is 1/4 scale, does the part come into SC at 1/4 it's true size?

If so, maybe you need to create a drawing format that is actually larger than your part so you end up with a drawing scale of 1:1, create your AD drawing from the model on that sheet format, then export as DXF. Maybe it will retain scale. Just a thought....
