Table Of Contents
PDS information is read from Intergraph's DRV files. The file reader looks for a DRV file with the same base name
as the DGN file in the same directory.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores PDS data.
Convert TriCAD Data Select this check box to read object information from Triplan's TriCAD
while converting
DGN files.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores TriCAD data.
Convert TriForma Data Select this check box to read object information from Bentley's TriForma
while
converting DGN files.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores Tri-Forma data.
TriForma Dataset Search Paths Enter a semi-colon separated list of paths that the file reader uses to locate
Triforma data set files. You must include the paths to user-defined datasets.
View Number Enter the required value to selects a specific view for loading. The file reader uses the level visibility
of this view when converting items.
For example, enter 0 to use the first active view.

DWF Page
Use this page to adjust the options for the DWF file reader.
Faceting Factor Enter the required value to control the level of faceting that takes place.
The faceting factor must be greater or equal to 0, where 0 results in the faceting factor being turned off. The
default value is 1. To get twice the number of facets, double the value. To get half as many facets, halve the value.
Larger faceting factors result in more polygons to a model and larger Autodesk Navisworks files.
Max Facet Deviation This setting controls the greatest distance between the edge of a facet and the actual
geometry.
If this distance is greater than the Max Facet Deviation value, Autodesk Navisworks adds more facets.
If the Max Facet Deviation is set to 0, then this function is ignored.
Extract Textures Select this check box to extract textures and environment maps associated with the file.
NOTE Environment maps are not set in the scene by default, and must be configured in Presenter manually.
When this check box is clear, the file reader ignores maps and textures.
