imprt dxf file and printing to scale
I am a clothing designer and am new to the CAD software world. I am using CLO 3D to make my designs now and they are exported into DXF files. I have been trying to print them for days! I can't seem to get them to print to scale. I have sent the files to print shops and my own printer, which I prefer to use, and they come out very small. How do I import a dxf file into qcad and print it to scale?

Hello lindseables - welcome to the forum.
First of all - if you have a dxf there is no need to "Import" the file in QCAD. Just open the file: Menu / File / Open ..... location of the file ...open.
If you have still problems with printing to scale - could you please attach here an example file? If you are only able to provide a confidential file feel free to use my PM.
Thanks.
