We are trying to cross over to ABS 2007, in doing so have hit a real deal breaker. In 2006 we started to use DWF's for the engineers to markup, life was good.

In 2007 the images scale themselves and we can not seem to stop it. We use tiff's for our images because the are smaller then anything else.

Any ideas on a fix.

This issue is stopping us from fully crossing over.

I'm afraif I can't answer your question directly, as I only have ABS2006, but I do know that the DWF kernel is having a bit of an overhaul due to scaling issues.

One thing to try is up the DPI to at least 500,000, that may help you out.

This issue is stopping us from fully crossing over.Are you saying that an image file that's inserted in a view gets scaled? Or that the .dwf file that you converted to a .tiff image is getting scaled? I guess I'm a little confused as I thought a dwf file was a .dwf file and not a tiff? Also I thought that a dwf file was smaller than tiffs? Or are these a buch of marked up files that you created in composer or something? Please let us know.
