please help - HUGE file size on exporting svg fix in inkscape, why not corel?

I had another customer say "The file is HUGE, each time I try to download it into Cricut Design Space, it imports so large that even at 25% screen size, it still is too large and am unable to resize it to a manageable size. Why is this happening? " 

I created the image at 6 inches, not pixels since that's what Cricut's want - yet when I upload it there it comes in at about 4 times its size and won't fit in the design space. 

on a facebook forum i found out in Inscape you can scale the document size  to the drawing with one click. Also you can scale the drawing to output as 1:1  All from the document properties window. I tried finding these options in Corel to no avail. Bums me out since Inscape is a free program and has some really handy features, am I missing something in corel?

Please help - thanks
