Setting Point File Units

 

When importing delimited text files you must set the specific units of measure for the file data. The selected units of measure are ignored for SLDCRV and IGES files.

To Set the Units of Measure

During the process of importing a point file, select the appropriate units of measure from the Units dropdown list. The selection you make is used to properly scale the imported data into the units used by the active document.
