The following limitations apply:
-
Draft's intelligent blanking primitives are not exported to the DGN file.
-
User-defined glyphs and line pictures are ignored. However, it is possible to specify a MicroStation custom line-style for a given Draft pen number.
-
Hatching (fill) using styles HPATTERN23 to HPATTERN30 are exported as a set of poly-lines. (Hatch Patterns HPATTERN1 to HPATTERN 22 are exported to DGN8 files as MicroStation Hatches.)
-
Dimensions are not exported as MicroStation dimensions. However, they may be grouped.
-
Multi-byte fonts are not supported with MicroStation, for DGN7 format. For DGN8 format they are supported provided that the computer running Draft has appropriate Language and Regional settings.
