Hi all,I’m working with FME 2025.1 on a LandXML export-import workflow and encountering an issue: LandXML Reader and Writer do not have a Version 1.2 option. My goal is to export a corridor alignment, but the vertical alignment (profile) data is not coming through correctly. Without 1.2 support, how can I tolerate or work around these missing elements in FME? Specifically, I’m wondering: Is there a way to properly bring vertical alignment data from a LandXML 1.2 file into FME? Are there alternative formats or preprocessing steps to compensate for missing data? How can I avoid data loss on the Writer side, since 1.2 is not supported for export? Thanks in advance for any guidance!
