Hi,

Using fme workbench I am writing(fan out) dwg files. Some of the filename has arabic character which fme is not able to write. following is the message

ERROR |AutoCAD Writer: An error occurred for dataset 'D:\\Projects\\Filegdb_to_AutoCad\\Output-dwg\\?????? ????.dwg', in function RealDWGWriter::saveDatabaseAs: 'eFilerError'

Note: fme is able to write arabic attribute as OD without any issue but the cannot create file.

I am on windows 10 arabic enable OS. I can create arabic filename outside fme.

Any solution or workaround.

Regards

Just out of curiousity, can you create a DWG file with arabic characters in the filename when you're not using a fanout? How about other formats?

Hi,

Tried with csv file output but same issue, So its not fanout or dwg.

I don't expect this to make any difference but it's worth a try:

Use a FeatureWriter transformer rather than a DWG writer. It should use the same code, but you never know...

If it persists I would recommend getting in touch with the support staff at your local reseller or Safe directly.

Even the FeatureWriter did not help.
