AutoCAD has the ability for a user to set the "vector DPI" to control the
precision. I am under the impression that Autodesk Inventor does not have
this ability. It produces DWF files of the highest available precision. This
lead to the creation of the "measurement disablement" capability in case
people want to protect their design data from reverse engineering. Perhaps
someone with more Inventor expertise will chime in. I assume you are using
Autodesk Design Review 2008 and that this is not an Autodesk Design Review
2008 issue. Since Inventor has had two releases since then, R11 and the R11
DWF Extension, my guess is that this is an Inventor issue that has been
fixed in a subsequent update to R10. I did not see any pertinent fixes
related to this issue on

I am using Inventor R10 to create .dwf files to share with my customers and
vendors. Both of them are using Autodesk Design Reviewer. They are telling
me that when they go to measure a part in the dwf 3D model, the dimensions
are rounded to the nearest inch. I always create the .dwf from the model
space, because my vendors and customers like the 3D models to rotate and
view.
What do I need to do to make sure that when I save the .ipt or .iam that the
.dwf file will measure properly.
