I am quite new to FME Workbench, and am trying to extract some data from an AutoCAD DWG file to a CSV. The FME Data Inspector is showing the features I want to extract (autocad_<blah>), and it is also showing IFMELine information which I also need to extract.

The question is: How do I extract this IFMELine information?

What part of the geometry do you need to export?

CSV isn't a geometry-aware format as such, but you can convert your geometry into a text string using e.g. a GeometryExtractor set to OGC Well-Known Text.

Or you can extract e.g. the first or the last coordinate using the CoordinateExtractor, etc.

The CoordinateConcatenator is another transformer that might help.
