Shrinkage.
As stated it’s best to do a calibration print. Compare printed dimensions to nominal dimensions. I also measure before and after annealing. And then scale accordingly.
For instance in my case
H2D, Fiberon PA6-CF20, .4 nozzle, .96 flow, 300blkfde settings and speeds
I scale my models XY 100.3% and Z 100.5% and pretty much anything is dimensionally within .01mm after annealing (per Polymaker TDS 100c @16h)
Your results may vary based on a multitude of factors, so a quick calibration print will save you a lot of wasted filament.
Orcaslicer has XY and Z scaling under filament settings. BambuSlicer only has XY.
