By default, the size of a MEDUSA sheet is determined by the size entry in the DXW/DWG file (extmin, extmax). Reading these values can lead to problems, as some programs dont pass them on properly. You can change your settings to calculate the sheet settings according to the min/max size settings of the geometry. The switch for this function is SHEETSIZE, and you can change this switch by selecting options > interface > DXF/DWG in the user interface, or editing …\cadconvert\cfg\cadconvert.cfg.
