Angela,
I have experienced similar issues when exporting objects
out of Smallworld using FME. Recreating the object usually solved the
problem for me.

Subject: [fme] Smallword objects getting badly distorted on export to shape file format
FME Yahoo group
members:
I need to use FME to export our
water main objects from Smallworld to a shape file. The vast majority
export just fine. However some get badly distorted in the export process
and are unusable by our customer. All those that are getting distorted
appear to have arcs in them which are contiguous and which share the same radius
point. The confusing thing is that some mains which fit this description
export without any distortion.
The only thing I can think of that
the distorted mains have in common is that they were created by setting trails
on objects which were imported into Smallworld from Autocad (using FME).
However, there does not appear to be anything intrinsically wrong with the
geometry of these mains.
I am attaching a Word document
that shows an example of one of the mains which! got distorted by the export
process, plus an example of a main which is very similar in its geometry, but
which did not get distorted.
Hope someone can shed some light
on what’s going on here!
