FarooqiSA: Then your conversion was between different types of imperial units which would be correct.  However, the person who started this thread is going between two DIFFERENT types of units: imperial and metric so you're conversion would be incorrect.

Hello FarooqiSA, I apologise for the "quit shocked" even if I'd put a little bit of humour inside ( quit instead of quite ).
I have uploaded a new DWG file ( FEET-METERS.dwg ) showing different kind of settings of file + setting of dimensions.
See the drawing with dimensions in feet + alternative dimensions in meters + coordonates in absolut position towards the 0,0.
See inside the white circle dimensions in architectural + alternative dimensions in meters.

John Connor: I realized that only after getting feedback from you and the other guy. And I apologise for being putting irrelavant post here. But at least I learned something from that. Thanks
