Didn't look at any code - but the units in DXF are configurable. So the driver should do that only if it knowns the current units. It might assume running with the DXF header shipped with GDAL (assuming there is one) and you are using another one? Jürgen -- Jürgen E. Fischer norBIT GmbH Tel. +49-4931-918175-31 Dipl.-Inf.
