I have an AutoCAD .dwg file where everything in the model space is drawn at 1:1

I need to open with file with Archicad so that everything can be view in my Plan View at 1/4" = 1'-0"

What are the translator setting I need to use ?

Too easy - this worked perfectly.

I am purely metric, but if you open a new worksheet, use the quick settings at the bottom of your screen to set the view scale to 1/4" then import the drawing from model space it should come in correctly. There is a dialog at import that gives a unit conversion option that may require a quick check. If all else fails select the imported DWG and scale to suit.
