I have a Shape file with +- 3.6 million 3d points. I wantto get 
these into an ASCII file with one points X,Y,Z per line.

I tried the CSV writer but had problems so thought I'd go DXF. This 
worked with a test file (4097 points) exported in ArcMap but gives 
an empty file when all I do is change the name of the source SHP 
file. The log for the failed one is essentially identical for the 
successful one except it says:
2005-08-17 16:24:42|   0.8|  0.2|INFORM|FME Configuration: 
Destination coordinate system set to input coordinate system 
`UNDEFINED-FOOT'

the failed one does not have that line. At the end of the log the 
successful one states:
Emptying factory pipeline
Unexpected Input Remover(TestFactory): Tested 4097 input features -- 
4097 features passed, 0 features failed
Source -> Generic(TeeFactory): Cloned 4097 input features into 4097 
output features
subset_of_pts -> subset_of_pts Correlator(TeeFactory): Cloned 4097 
input features into 4097 output features

Any suggestions or fmw files for accomplishing this would be 
appreciated.
