Hi Carly, I don't believe there should be a problem with levels > 63 - but I'm out of the office at the moment so can't test it. If you find that there is a problem then let us know via [EMAIL PROTECTED] (make sure you're using a reasonably new version of FME, say 2006 or later).
What you can do is read your DGN through a feature type that has a merge filter set in Workbench. That will let any unknown feature types pass. You could then do a fanout on the destination by the original feature type (think it will work OK). However - it doesn't give you much control (actually none) within the workspace and I don't know how it relates to your writing of scripts. Are you using FME Objects? How are you creating a GUI?
