Output Units
Specifies how FME feature coordinates are interpreted and converted into Units of Resolution (UORs).
- Master: UORs are converted into master units.
- Sub: UORs are converted into subunits.
- UOR: UORs are written as raw UOR coordinates.
Allow Area Fills
Controls whether or not fill linkages will be written out for ellipses, shapes, and solids.
Write Tags (V8 only)
In version 8, the feature type is always taken as the level name. When the Write Tags parameter is set to Yes in the Workbench writer parameters, then the feature type will also be the tagset name.

Seed File (V8 only)
Set the location of the seed file, which controls whether or not the output file is two-dimensional or three-dimensional, and sets the models, the global origin, and the unit information of the destination file.
Cell Library File
Optionally specify a design file cell library, which contains definitions of symbols that can be placed in the output design file.
If a translation to design file fails because of insufficient ground range, FME detects this and will automatically supply these settings for the next translation.
Advanced
Two Point Line Output
Specifies how you want to store the two-point line features.
- Type 3 Elements: Two-point line features are stored as type 3 line elements.
- Type 4 Elements: Two-point line features are stored as type 4 line elements.
Scale Cells to Destination Model (V8 only)
If selected, indicates that the coordinates of named cells written to the destination should be scaled from the coordinate space of the cell model to the coordinate space of the seed model (which is used as the destination).
This affects shared and unshared cells that do not have a cell size set (that is, igds_cell_size, or igds_cell_size_x and igds_cell_size_y). This behavior is similar to the setting for True Scale when placing cells in MicroStation.
Write XFM Store Elements from Seed File
- Yes: This parameter indicates that XML Feature Modeling (XFM) store features may be preserved in the destination dataset, from the seed file, and not written from features.
- No: XFM store elements will be created from any features with an igds_type of igds_xfmstore, which the writer receives.
Default Cell Name
The default cell used in place of any cells requested but not found in the cell library.
Resource Font File
If set, this parameter indicates that text features may use the Resource (RSC) font file specified to assist in text element placement, size, and range calculation.
This only applies to text features with RSC font IDs specified in the igds_font attribute, and which are found in the specified RSC file to be symbolic fonts. If this parameter is not specified, text elements with symbolic RSC fonts will have their placement, size, and range estimated.
Override Global Origin
By default, the global origin is at the center of the design plane/cube. You can override the global origin by setting the values of X, Y, and Z.
Setting these values overwrites the global origin as read from the DGN file.
- UOR X Global Origin: The global origin of X measured in UORs, from the lower left corner of the design plane/cube. Value: unsigned 32-bit integer.
- UOR Y Global Origin: The global origin of Y measured in UORs, from the lower left corner of the design plane/cube. Value: unsigned 32-bit integer.
- UOR Z Global Origin: The global origin of Z measured in UORs, from the lower left corner of the design plane/cube Value: unsigned 32-bit integer.
