    I have been asked by our designer to have our .dwg files converted to DTM files for MicroStation. Does anyone out there know how to do this?

    Thanks a bunch

    I don't know how but:

    you can't do it straight from CAD, can you explain what a DTM file is?
    (can you move lines, is it a photo,...)

    Digital Terrain Modeling
    It triangulates points to make contours.
    Export LandXML and give it to them.
