English-to-Metric
Universal working units conversions!

Request more information »

Correctly converting a design file is not an impossible task, but it does require careful calculation and a thorough understanding of what will be affected and why. If conversions are not done correctly, reference files will no longer be attached properly, dimensioning elements will have extension lines going off into space, named views will not be what they used to be and the annotations representing units of length, elevation, area and volume in text elements may be incorrect. In addition, if the conversion is not done correctly, you may run out of design plane area in which to work.

English-to-Metric — the solution to working units conversion
To properly handle the above tasks, Axiom developed English-to-Metric. English-to-Metric handles all aspects of converting design files, cell libraries and custom line style resource files from any set of working units to any other set of working units. English-to-Metric not only converts from English to metric but also converts from metric to English. It properly scales reference file attachments, named views, dimensioning elements, custom line styles, multi-lines, and all text elements containing numbers that represent lengths, elevations, etc.

English-to-Metric also ensures that accurate distances from the global origin are maintained after conversion so that you don’t lose any elements that may otherwise disappear beyond an incorrectly scaled design plane.

English-to-Metric gives you precise and complete control over the conversion of working units.

Conversion accuracy
English-to-Metric can convert one or thousands of MicroStation files at a time with amazing speed and accuracy. In fact, the precision with which English-to-Metric converts MicroStation files was recently expanded to twelve decimal points! That’s over one hundred thousand times the accuracy of MicroStation itself. If you work with maps covering large areas of land or if absolute conversion precision is valuable to you, English-to-Metric delivers
