I am working on a lot of the DWG we got from a contractor and I have to deal with it because our forest is using a different projection and the units are different.  However, I have no troube with write to a new DWG with the correct projection and units.

The only one probem I have here  is the Annotation which is different between the FME Data Inspector and ArcGIS Pro I have here.  The Annotation scale is way big and all over that I cannot read in ArcGIS Pro.

Is there a work around to fix the problem ?

I am in Colorado and work for a forest service.  I have two screenshot that will be helpful 

 

This picture is in FME : 

and this is in ArcGIS Pro 

 

Can anyone out there that have had similiar issues or a problem solved in the past ?

 

Thanks !

If possible, could you please share your workspace with sample data or share a screenshot of your workspace and a screenshot of how you set up the writer?

It might help to use a Scaler transformer.

Thank you !

 

Sure

After I save them to a new DWG with new coordinate system , this is what I get 

 

 

So, that is why I am asking to see if there is a way around…

 

Hi ​@probert1968 

Have you tried the Scaler transformer? 

Could you send a screenshot of your FME workspace and how you set up the writer in FME? Which version of FME are you using?
