carved scan coming out small
i have scanned a dash vent from a 31 ford. The scan came out well and the carving looks good. The problem is the carving is coming out 1/8" smaller then the original. It looks like the carving bit is not offset and is carving the cut path to the outside of the bit instead of the inside. i have not had this problem in other scanned carves. Do i just adjust the size of the scan up an 1/8" to compensate?

carve scan coming out small
I am just getting back to this vent. I tried adjusting the size in designer, but when i try to save it, the program changes the size to a larger one again. I have attached a picture of the MPC. If you look at the rectangle that indicates the size, it is bigger than the scan. I think this is why the carve is coming out small? Any thoughts? The actual carve is coming out 6.0625' x 8.75. It should be 6.375 x 8.875.
Thanks
