Hi Adrian, You should be able to read the file with the text line reader, finding the appropriate line with a grepper or if the data is always on the same line just by testing the line number, extract out the x/y with the attribute splitter and then apply the offset to each file using the 'offsetter' transformer, reading the values straight from the x/y attribute.
I haven't used this file format before, but that would be how I would approach the problem. Of course I could REALLY be oversimplifying things too.

Each file includes a local origin value e.g. !MD LO 200000.000000000 100000.000000000 which shows the offset that needs to be applied to the data. Is there anyway of reading this information so I can apply the offset to the translated data? Cheers Adrian Join us at the FME Worldwide User Conference Sept. 21-22, 2006 Vancouver BC Canada.
