We then import this file into FreeCAD and export it in a format that Blender can handle. Once in Blender, we enable the DXF import add-on and discuss the importance of understanding units in Blender. We highlight how Blender&use of the metric system can result in large imported objects from CAD applications that use millimeters, and we demonstrate how to adjust the unit scale or scale all objects down once imported. We then import the DXF file into Blender, scale down the large imported objects, and convert the curve objects into mesh objects. We also use the Measure It add-on to measure the length of the building and verify the accuracy of our scaling. Finally, we separate the drawing into individual sections and add them into new collections. This prepares the drawing for modeling into a 3D structure, rendering, or exporting to another application like Unreal Engine or Twinmotion...
