Hi,
DXF file, to my knowledge have no unit information. Unit is defined in
AutoCad. Various version of AutoCad have their own way of doing this.
EPSG 26917 is in meters therefore the export unit will be meters.

Hi QGIS team,
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. The scaling of the contours is correct in AutoCAD
though. Is there any way to make sure the exported DXF is in metric units?
Thank you very much for the help!
Sincerely,
Gordon
