________________________________
I am currently using QGIS 3.16.16. My data are typically represented by
contours and they are in metres. I always use the coordinate system EPSG 26917
for my work. However, whenever I export the contours using the "Save Feature
As" function on QGIS to an AutoCAD DXF file. The default DXF file is in feet
and I have to manually change the units on AutoCAD to metric.
Hi Gordon,
it is a known issue: please see [1] and [2] for reference and workaround.
Best regards.
