Define Scaling for Imported DWG or DXF Files

For imported DWG and DXF files, you can specify the units of measure for the imported geometry, and define a scale factor to achieve the appropriate scale for the Revit project.

  1. Select an import symbol and click Modify | <File Name> tabProperties panel (Type Properties).
  2. In the Type Properties dialog, modify Import Units or Scale Factor.

    If you change the import units, the scale factor automatically updates. See Import and Link Options.

    Note: If no values display for these parameters, you must reload the link or reimport the file.
  3. Click OK.
