When reprojecting a spatial Autocad DXF file with labels, I'm finding that the geometries all get reprojected correctly, but the labels are wildly wrong. I've reprojected a variety of attributes such as autocad_alignment_x and autocad_alignment_y but haven't been able to get a solution. When manually setting fme_text_size, the overall bounding box of the data does change, but the labels themselves don't seem to behave correctly. Has anybody run into similar issues in the past?

Hi @rhildebrand! Sound like something similar to this post: Reprojecting CAD from NJNAD83 to LL84 text problem. The solution here was to remove the autocad_text_size and autocad_original_text_size format attributes before writing.

If that doesn't do the trick you might want to try using the DWG Styler to set your text size. I hope this helps!
