    Hi, I have a couple of drawings labeled with metric dimensions (static) and want to convert them all into english unit. What I could do is to write a script using calculation command and take that divide the conversion factor then pick one label at a time. Yet, don't know much about the lisp and if anyone can give me a better direction of how to get this done faster, may be pick all number and convert them all in one step. Thanks very much in advance

    cadder1,

    It probably can be done with lisp for the entire drawing with one command.
    But you haven't provided enough information. Are the dimensions in model or
    paper space? Are the dimensions expressed in meters, centimeters or
    millimeters? Do you want the values returned in Architectural or Engineering
    Imperial units, or maybe decimal feet?

    Suggest you answer these questions and post an example metric file in
    customer files NG.

    anymore. Another ways? Thanks
