    solid to iges or dwg file

    i have a 5" dia round insert turned down to 4.5" by 2" tall
    the 5" is at the bottom solid by 1/2 thick
    the 4.5" dia is 1.5 solid on top of that
    and then there is a radiused sauser shape contour .750 deep extracted from the 4.5 diameter to make a cavity in the center.
    not to complicated.
    does anyone know why when i convert this file to iges or dwg/dxf. the 5" diameter disk is 374" (yes that 374 inches) (in the x minus direction) off in outer space.
    the center 4.5 diameter is 100 inches deep and the extracted shape is off in y+ somewhere.
    any help would be appriciated. v22 newst build
    i had all three pcs diff colors for clearity.
    when i changed them all to a color of gray it seemed to help. but why the problem , does color destroy data.
