Size

I am trying to PASTECLIP a portion of one drawing to another.  The original drawing is the correct size however when it is put into the second drawing it shrinks exactly 3 times its size.  I have checked the properties and they are the same.  What am I missing?

UNITS in both files are set to what?

Are both drawings drawn at 1:1 scale?

UNITS are both set the exact same (mm)

Both drawings are set at 1:1 scale.

What are INSUNITS set to?  Try "4" for mm.

3X difference is a weird scale for mm: perhaps the difference is 2.54 times?

The original drawing is 684.925 and then it shrinks to 228.3 which makes it about 3.0001 times smaller.  I think it is very strange.

Inside each file, match up all the settings when you type the command

-DWGUNITS (note there is a dash in the name of the command).

 

Ue the "good one" as your guide.
