Comment 24 for bug 293940

just a note on scaling :
what the program does is read the parameters $EXTMIN and $EXTMAX from the dxf header, if they exist. It will then use these parameters to fit the entire drawing into the width of an A4 page. If these parameters do not exist then it will use a standard scaling based on the assumption that the dxf drawing was done in mm. and that the Inkscape screen resolution is 90 dpi.
