Hi John,
Interesting issue. I tried to duplicate your experience but could not.
What is happening, from what I can see, is that we are getting in
trouble over the z coordinate here -- the � is where the z value
should be.
Can you forward the log file (and workspace if you're using one), along
with the original data if you don't mind to [EMAIL PROTECTED], so we can
see what is going on. I'm guessing you're using an FME 2007 beta since
the Autocad file couldn't be read by FME 2006 GB -- knowing the build
(which the log will tell us) of FME will definitely help. Also knowing
what coordinate system you chose to tag the autocad file with will help
too -- GML requires a coordinate system, and I *think* there may be a
relation between the coordinate system dimension and the z values, but
I'm not sure.
Thanks. Good problem.
