Column-Aligned Text (CAT) Feature Representation

In addition to the generic FME feature attributes that FME Workbench adds to all features (see About Feature Type Attributes), this format also adds format-specific attributes (Format Attributes).

All CAT features contain a cat_type attribute, which is set to cat_none if there is no geometry, or to cat_point if coordinates were specified. cat_type also indicates that the feature was generated from a CAT file.
