How to combine two separate drawings with different units

[Anonymous]

How do you save two separate drawings with different units and scales into one. I need to upload two assignments to my teacher but they have to be in one file.

Please help.

A: inch

B: mm

if link B into A, choose unit = mm.  If link A into B, choose unit = inch.  Bind link when done.

p/s: Next time if you download models from the internet for you assignments, find the ones with the same units 😉

Print each drawing to a pdf file. Use Acrobat or Revu or another pdf editor to combine the two files into one multi-page file.
