I have a DWG file with autocad_surfaces.

I want to export these to a line, so that I can use it in ArcGIS Pro.

How can I convert the features from surfaces to lines in an ArcGIS File Geodatabase using FME 2018?

Surfaces are a special kind of geometry. You can use a GeometryPartExtractor to get the Lines from a Surface. You can do this by setting it into 'This part' 'Geometry Type' '=' 'IFMELine'. The lines should come out through the Extracted port. It might be possible that you need to clean up the lines, since they van overlap.
