IPC-2581 Number Precision

ottodude125

I am exporting an IPC2581 containing the Cross Section Data only. I am having an issue with number precision. My cross section thickness values are defined in mils. One example is 1.775 mil. When I export the IPC 2581 the file converts this to inches and only retains the number to 5 decimal points of precision so I end up with 0.00178 which is inaccurate. 

I have searched though the menus and help docs but I cannot find where you can adjust this. I am using Allegro PCB Designer 16.6 Hotfix 93.

Any help would be appreciated. 

Thank You

Jonathan

    Oldmouldy... I didn't see your response before I posted my last one. I pretty much regurgitated what you just mentioned. Thanks for the feedback!
