i would like to put symbol instead of point in pdf but i have used pdf styler and it has no symbols . do we have transformer that include symbols to define some points in pdf output

fme 2018 .thanks in advance

No, there is no such transformer.

 

Based on the questions you're asking I get the impression you're working on a big project. Could you give us a more complete overview of what you're trying to achieve so that we may be able to help you better?

 

It sounds like you're trying to make (a lot of) maps, if that's the case one option to consider may be to use the FME Auto plug-in for MAPublisher. In that case you'll be using the styling options of MAPublisher, a plug-in for Adobe Illustrator.


I guess you could use GeometryReplacer to replace points with symbols as geometry.

But you should first create your symbols, store their geometry in an attribute, join your data with the symbol data, then replace the point.
