Need help with Dimension conversion!

I am drawing on a large commercial facility plan received from an Italian designer drawn in centimeters.

I would like to continue to draw in centimeters, but would like my dimensions to appear in feet and inches to the 1/2 inch.

Please help!

Thanks!

You will need to set up a DIMSTYLE that uses architectual as units has a conversion factor of .3937

Assuming you will add your own DIMSTYLE for the task... Look up DIMLFAC variable in help, it will set your preset dimstyle to do that if you want.
