Tool compensation is left to the controller
NoticeWorth knowing about the file you get back. It never stops a conversion.
What the converter says
the tool runs left of the drawn path, which the controller works out from the tool's diameter
What triggers it
The path is programmed on the drawn line and the tool is meant to run beside it. The file says so with G41 or G42, and the controller moves the path over by the radius in its tool table.

Make sure the tool number in the file carries the right diameter in the controller's tool table, or turn compensation off and draw the path where the tool centre should go.
