Im having a hard time. Hope someone can help.
piece of art is big so I cropped the whole file into 4 separate segments. aligning them to print based off “zero” origin and x and y points I cannot seem to fine a reference point and have these pieces fall in the spot they belong. all helps appreciated
input the x and y axis assigned in program into arcdroid with the same origin and zero point but doesn’t fall in line. any help?

@Andrew here are the files hope you can help
So I had a look at you files and it’s just a frame of refernce thing.
Your Origin is way off in the bottom left corner
So this makes it really hard to line stuff up
Try moving you drawing so the Origin is in the center , make sure you export all dxf files without moving the origin or any of the parts.
Then choose you center point on the sheet with the ArcDroid before loading the first file and Don’t change it between loads… they should all now be referenced from the center point
awesome @Andrew thank you my O-0 point in program was the corner of the page so if I just move center of art to where 0-0 is in program and use the x and y planes it should line up right?
and the reason I had to separate the artwork was because original file was too large
the big trick is don’t change the zero point on the ArcDroid between file loads. And they should all line up.
It’s the font that is messing with the file size. What program are you using to create the dxf?
im using ink scape @Andrew trying to get used to fusion 360
