Greetings,

I am trying to export ellipse features to an ESRI file gdb.

1)

Do they need any processing by a transformer first??

2)

Should they be exported as a line or polygon??

Any suggestions appreciated.

You do not need to do any processing first - just make sure you only have ellipses, then write to the GDB. I just ran a test to make sure, and you can write the ellipses as either polylines or polygons. You will just need to set the geometry on the writer feature type.
