Recommendations for Importing DXF files from ISODRAFT into MicroStation
Isometrics produced using ISODRAFT can be passed into MicroStation as DXF files for amendment or the production of a DGN equivalent for issue. These notes refer only to MicroStation/J and the DXF files produced from ISODRAFT.
A straightforward import of an ISODRAFT DXF file into a freshly installed version of MicroStation/J produces a picture which has accurate rendition of the isometric vectors but fonts and colour are not correct. Neither can a plot be produced, as the colour is white on white.
The comments in these notes refer mainly to fonts and colour and how to bring them into line with the original isometric. Experienced MicroStation users may know simpler ways of doing this.
