Messurment problem while converting to STP file

Hi all,

 

what am i doing wrong. Afther finishing a part in Inventor 2014 a want to store it as a STL file. Thats no problem but  when the part is saved as STL it messurments don't add up any more. The STL file becomes a factor 10 smaller. So 50mm ends up as 5mm. So thats a problem. Does anyone know what is going wrong.

 

Thanks, Rene The Ntherlands.

You title says STEP, not stl.

 

When Save Copy as type *.stl be sure to set Options the correct Units (same as model).

 

How are you checking the resulting size?
