I have been trying to convert old DGN files to DWG files to develop consistency through the P&IDs, but I have run into a myriad of issues while doing so.
1) I have a very old version of Microstation, which is older than I am and is not used often I imagine. This leads to issues as I cannot find any information on it.
2) When I go to export the DGN to a DWG in Microstation and reopen it in AutoCAD, there are formatting issues as shown in the image below. It seems as if the text and lines have remained unchanged for the most part, but the reducers and valves and shapes like them have been moved away from their original position.
3) There are many options when exporting, and I do not know which option is pertinent to my issue. The options are shown below in the pop out box.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Is this the only version of MicroStation you have access to?
Adoption of RealDWG was implemented after MS/J so the export is not perfect as there are somethings supported in a DGN that arent in DWG.
