Looking to Export Inch .dxf file from Nest

I have created a nest from an assembly of sheet metal parts using a "Standard(in)" profile. My sources are all imported properly in inches with a "from source document" unit rule. All of my parts are created in imperial units. I am able to successfully create a nesting study with the sheet metal parts desired. The problem I am having now is I want to export as a .dxf that can be read directly buy our shops laser table. The problem is this document is interpreted as a metric when using the export tool from inventor. I do not wish to have to scale/convert these drawings in autocad. I am looking for an imperial export option. When looking at the nesting reports under the nesting study all of the numbers/units seem to be in a metric format(see screenshots). Is there some kind of configuration I can change to change this? Any help is appreciated. Capture.JPGCapture2.JPGCapture3.JPG
