Deepnest resizing SVG files?

Everything Else
#1

I’m trying to take advantage of DeepNest to reduce waste. I have a template that I use, 2.5"x3.5". When I pull it into DeepNest, it seems to lose 1/2" each way for every import. When I pull the same file into GF, it shows the correct size.

Is anyone else seeing this or can someone try it and let me know what their results are?

Thanks!

Take a look at the Import/Export settings in Deepnest. There is a setting for SVG Scale that defaults to 72 units/inch. This will need to match whatever design software you used (96 for Inkscape, I believe).

Thanks. I’ll double check that. I’m using illustrator but I’ll double check and make sure AI is using 72 also.

I just double checked everything. Still reducing it down 1/2" each way. I even created a new AI and set the dpi to 72. Same results.
