move layout to coordinates of 0,0

I imported a DXF file but it was placed in middle of somewhere . I would like to move the left corner bottom to the coordinates of 0,0. Is there an easy way to do it? 
The corner is also round shape, it's is very difficult to move it manually.

    Usually, I place a circular shape at the point I want to be the design origin. Then look at coordinates or the center of this shape using the Show Element command. Then I go to Setup-->Design Parameters -->Design Tab and put these numbers in Move Origin fields. Then delete the shape.
