What to do if AD10 exceeds the PCB area when importing CAD [Copy link]

 

What should I do if the error shown in the figure appears when AD10 is imported into CAD? The imported file is not completely contained in the valid PCB area (100inch*100inch), so it will be moved accordingly. For the precise import position and to prevent this warning from appearing in the future, please modify the "Locate AutoCAD (0,0)" option in the previous dialog box.

Is the imported file in imperial units? "Effective PCB area (100 inches * 100 inches)"

Try CAD's DXF, which has a lower error rate.

It should be a CAD format problem. Starting from Altium Designer 14, the CAD version supports CAD 2014 and no longer distinguishes between dwg and dxf. If you use AD10, you will be given dxf format.
