Kicad works in imperial internally, I think it's grid is 0.0001, might be
0.00001 I'm not 100% sure. So any metric output would be a simple
conversion.
I find it strange that a manufacturer cannot handle both formats, but if
it is really that important I would write a script to do the conversion
as needed.

Hi all,
Does anyone know if it is possible to have the component position file done in metric format (rather than imperial)?
I am using fine-pitch connectors and my contract manufacturer mentioned that it would be easier and more accurate because their system apparently works better with metric inputs.
Thanks, Heiko
