AutoCAD express tools, modify flatten objects

$

Using the express tool "modify, flatten objects" is there a setting for the accuracy  to which the resultant arcs match the source spline? I am handling drawings for the creation of tool paths for a Flow waterjet machine and I have seen the resultant arcs differ from the original spline curves by a substantial amount (up to .15in) and often have to hand overtrace the splines.  Also can I set it to substitute lines for arcs if they are too flat. I am working with a CAM software that doesn't always convert splines well and has a bad time creating workable tool paths if the arcs are more than about 1000in radius.
