With versions 2015 you can get rid of these additional linetypes (if they are present in the DGN) using the -PURGE command.]]> Tue, 10 Feb 2015 14:12:43 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=10975&PID=29040&title=inserting-dgn-files-into-dwg#29040 <![CDATA[inserting DGN files into DWG : I&#039;d be careful about this...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=10975&PID=29039&title=inserting-dgn-files-into-dwg#29039 Author: John Connor

I'd be careful about this as Microstation brings a lot of linetypes (and maybe fonts?) along for the ride that tend to make the file size of a DWG file balloon out of control.

What is the exact error message? Any DGN v7 or v8 file should work. 99% DGN files are v7 or v8.]]> Tue, 10 Feb 2015 09:25:47 +0000 https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=10975&PID=29036&title=inserting-dgn-files-into-dwg#29036 <![CDATA[inserting DGN files into DWG : I am getting an error message...]]> https://www.cadforum.cz/forum_en/forum_posts.asp?TID=10975&PID=29034&title=inserting-dgn-files-into-dwg#29034 Author: cjohnstonau

I am getting an error message in 2015LT that stage the DGN file needs to be version 7 or 8.
How do I get this DGN file into my 2015LT drawing?
Thank you in advance.
