      Hi All,

      I am experiencing something that seem strange, however, I am new to C4D so it is possible that this is normal or I am doing something wrong.

      When I view my scene in the RedShift Picture Viewer the scene looks correct.

      When I import the C4D file into AE there is some strange scaling of the Illustrator import where the text seems scales.

      When I view my scene in the Render Picture Viewer it appears like it does in AE with the text scaled small.

      I am not sure what is going on here and if anyone has experienced this or know what I need to adjust I would appreciate it.

      Please see the attached images. (Bottom image is correct)

        Hi bottle-steak,

        Has any part in Cinema 4D scaling? If so, please go to:
        Main Menu> Tools> Axis Center> Reset Scale * (use the cogwheel)
        Check both options.
        (In previous versions, the Axis Center was in the Mesh Menu)

        If that guess (as I have no file here) isn't working, please share the Spline/AI file.

        Cheers

          Hi Dr. Sassi,

          sorry for the delay. You suggestion of Reset Scale seemed to do the trick.

          Thank you
