Importing Electrical Conduit from Revit to OpenBuildings

Hello,

I am working on a project utilising OpenBuildings (Update 6). The electrical engineer on the project has modelled conduit using Revit and I am attempting to utilise this to produce electrical layout drawings.

I downloaded the Bentley plugin for Revit to export the Revit model as an i.dgn file (this is the format I have had the most luck with so far in terms of geometry). I then imported the i.dgn file into our project, and it looks good in general. The issue I am having is that, when I go to the layouts, the geometry for the curves is imperfect and fragmented and, when I go to print, it does not look right (please see attached image of layout and view settings). Has anyone else had experiencing utilising the MEP services in Revit (specifically electrical/conduit) and importing these into OpenBuildings. 

In this particular circumstance, I would rather utilise the Revit model than remodel these services in OpenBuildings.

I would be very grateful if anyone is able to share any experiences they have in this area.

Thank you.
