scaling and DBU/UU - XStream vs XOasis

vshih

Virtuoso 6.1.8-64b

    techfile: dbuperuu:    1,000

During stream out, I would like to create higher resolution (DBU/UU = 10,000), while changing scale to be 0.9.

Question:

1. What would be the issue/concern, if I did this translation (Virtuoso DBU/UU = 1000, then gds/oasis DBU/UU = 10,000)?

2. I could do above process using XStream, in which there is option for me to change DBU/UU and scale factor in the same translation.

    However, I don't see the same option from XOasis, which only offer DBU/UU option but NOT scale option.

    Any suggestion? I want the output file to be oasis than gds.

    XStream and XOasis is from CIW -> File -> Export

Thanks,

    As far as I can see, oasis out doesn't provide a -scale option (but strmout does) - just a -dbuPerUU. I suggest you contact customer support. Using higher resolution isn't an issue with either format as you're not losing resolution.
