translating SW 2d polygons with holes successfully to another format

Best answer by davideagle

Yes that's possible as long as the other format supports donut polygons. Taker a look in the Readers and Writers reference manual for the target format in question and look at the Quick Facts page, you'll see there if the target format can accept donuts. If not you'll need to manipulate the donut with a transformer to make it possible to load... take a look at the DonutHoleExtractor transformer.
