I use Freecad/techdraw to export 2d-sections of my parts for laser-cutting.
The problem I face is that the exported lines in the .svg are slightly scaled by a factor of 1.016 resulting in slightly to large cutted parts.
The linewidth is here not the problem. When exporting the same part/view from Drawing-wb everything works fine !
Please try it on your system by drawing a rel. large part. Create a drawing of it and export it to .svg. Use the measure tool in inkscape with "snap curps nodes" and measure the length of the part.
I also attached a simple model of a 200mm long bar which is in the exported .svg 203.2mm. Please see the attached screenshot showing the measurement in Inkscape.
Is this already known??
Thanks in advance,

BTW: in the screenshot is also another problem visible.... the text of the dimensions is always shifted when opening it in inkscape (or firefox).
