Edit World File

This command edits the information in an image world file. After selecting the world file to edit, the parameters are shown in a dialog where you can edit the resolution or coordinates. The resolution defines the size of a pixel in drawing units. The Scale function multiplies the resolution and coordinates by a factor and can be used to convert a world file between English and metric units. The Transform function converts the world file between coordinate systems such as from UTM to State Plane. The Lat/Lon To Dwg function converts a world file in lat/lon units into units for the current drawing using the projection definition from Drawing Setup.
