While reading arc geometry from smallworld, FME converting geometry as a linear, Could any one help us to resolve the issue ? The conversion of the geometry is done by FME internally?

Problem in Reading arc geometry from smallworld
Best answer by markatsafe
This might depend on the version of FME and the version of Smallworld you are using. I can't recall when support for arcs was added to the FME for Smallworld reader but more recent versions of FME and Smallworld should export circular arcs. Other types of arc (elliptical, spline, etc.) are stroked.
Also, if you are reprojecting the data to a different coordinate system FME will probably stroke the arcs since an arc in one coordinate system is generally not the same as an arc in a different coordinate system.
