Translating from Smallworld to MicroStation using 2018 works fine but using 2020 the text is not translating correctly. I am using the same FMW file and the same Coordinate file.

I have tried a bunch of different coordinate combinations to find one that may work. Using the one that I have always used the objects translate in the correct location, but the scaling is incorrect. Other coordinate systems the text is the correct scale but not in the correct location. I am translating from NAD27 mm to NAD27 ft. looking for an answer so we can move forward with a software upgrade. See below for coordinate info that I am using. # KB 01/11/2013 - SRP database projectionCOORDINATE_SYSTEM_DEF SRP_AZ_Central_mm               \\ DESC_NM     "SRP Arizona Central NAD27 millemetre"  \\ SOURCE     "SRP GIS"                 \\ DT_NAME     NAD27                   \\ PROJ      TM                    \\ UNIT      MILLIMETER                \\ PARM1      -111.9166666666667            \\ ORG_LAT     31                    \\ SCL_RED     0.9999                  \\ X_OFF      152400
