Thank you for your question.
See the following information for setting up a DXF Postprocessor in PolyBoard:
Note the heading for Panel Origin, this may be what you need.

OfflineHi,
We are in the process of setting up Polyboard for design and exporting our part DXF files to separate optimisation/nesting software.
Currently we’re facing an issue of parts being flipped on the Y axis when imported. This is due to the DXF files using a standard bottom-left origin whilst our optimisation software is setup using top-left as 0,0 origin.
Unfortunatley we need to keep the top-left setup in our nesting software for consistency with our current workshop setup and it doesnt provide the option of converting the DXF origin on import.
Is there any way we can configure PolyBoard’s DXF postprocessor to adapt the part geometry to a differnt origin on export?
