Importing .dxf

[Draftsmith]

 Someone sent me a dxf drawing but it comes up very small once I import it. Is there a way to get it to scale once it's imported. Or a specific way I should tell someone to export it so it will come to Chief Architect to scale?

It might be in mm vs inches.  If so, using Transform/Replicate to resize by a factor of 25.4 should make it the right size.

That was too large but 12 worked! Thanks! So now that it imports as CAD do I have to draw over the lines with chief walls if I want to do any sort of 3D rendering?

That's the way to do it

Try bringing it in as Feet.
