Hi Rik, 
 You are correct, we should explain that in this message and document in help. 
 setting it to 1 is the correct syntax. That is generally the case for on/off variables but we still need to be explicit about each case.

Regarding these three messages, from the top down: 
 Two SHX fonts, iso3098b and ARCHITXT, used (presumably) by a DWG somewhere in the reference files are not available. If the SHX file(s) containing these can be identified and added to a location defined by MS_FONTPATH. The default value for this is C:\Program Files\Bentley\MicroStation CONNECT Edition\MicroStation\Default\fonts\, however adding SHX files in that location is obviously not efficient. 
 The best resolution would be for the people/organizations in the supply chain who still use SHX fonts to switch to commonly available Windows TrueType fonts, but this is not going to resolve your immediate problem. I suggest that your ProjectWise administrators do the following: 
 
 add a Fonts folder in an appropriate shared location 
 Append the path to this location to MS_FONTPATH in the managed configuration 
 obtain the missing fonts and put them in this folder 
 
 For info, hel says "If AutoCAD is installed, MicroStation searches for SHX fonts in AutoCAD&rsquo;s Fonts directory (the "Fonts" folder in the installation directory of the most recently used version of AutoCAD). With or without AutoCAD, MicroStation searches the directories specified by MS_FONTPATH , as well as the same directory as the design file requesting the font." 
 The other error is that a material palette file, hatch232.pal, is not found. If this palette can be located and copied into a location defined by MS_MATERIAL it should be seen during iModel publishing. Any images used by the materials in this palette will need to be in locations defined by MS_PATTERN and MS_BUMP variables. It could be worth checking what hatch232.pal contains and if the materials are actually needed, they might be duplicates of standard materials.
