Layer Table Format
Each section of the Layer Table Status File will start with a section definition line. The keyword will be enclosed in brackets:
[ON] : Subsequent lines will define those layers to be on. All other layers will be off.
[OFF]: Subsequent lines will define those layers to be off. The All other layers will be on.
[FORCE ON]: Subsequent lines will define those layers to be on. The status of any other layers will not be affected.
[FORCE OFF]: Subsequent lines will define those layers to be off. The status of any other layers will not be affected.
“ON” and “OFF” cannot be used with any of the other commands. “Force ON” and “Force OFF” can be used with each other, but cannot be used with either “ON” or “OFF”.

Layers Off
| PARAMETER | LAYERS_OFF |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter controls which Layers are off in the file. All other layers will be on. |
| Example | -LOFF=0;LAY1;LAY2 |
| Alias | -LOFF |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
Layers On
| PARAMETER | LAYERS_ON |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter controls which Layers are on in the file. All other layers will be off. |
| Example | -LON=0;LAY1;LAY2 |
| Alias | -LON |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
Part Off
| PARAMETER | PART_OFF |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter controls which Layers are forecd off in the file. The layers status of any layers not listed is unaffected. |
| Example | -PARTOFF=0;LAY1;LAY2 |
| Alias | -PARTOFF |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
Part On
| PARAMETER | PART_ON |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter controls which Layers are forced on in the file. The layers status of any layers not listed is unaffected. |
| Example | -PARTON=0;LAY1;LAY2 |
| Alias | -PARTON |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
Repository
| PARAMETER | REPOSITORY |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter controls if original reference paths are used when trying to find referenced raster files. See Raster File Search Order |
| Example | -REPO |
| Alias | -REPO |
| -RE | |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
Treat As
| PARAMETER | TREATAS |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter forces the converter to treat the input file as a particular type of CAD drawing despite what the file extension might be. For instance, a valid MicroStation file can have the extension .PCF instead of the normal .DGN. Using -TreatAs=DGN forces the PCF file to be processed as a DGN file. |
| Example | -TREATAS=DGN |
| Values | DGN - Treat as MicroStation Design file (DGN) |
| DWF - Treat as AutoCAD DWF file (usually for .W2D file) | |
| DWG - Treat as AutoCAD DWG file (usually for .BAK file) | |
| DXF - Treat as AutoCAD DXF file (for compleness) | |
| Alias | None |
| Use | With all graphic formats |
XPath
| PARAMETER | XPATH |
|---|---|
| Purpose | This parameter define an alternate path to search for orphaned x-refs (x-refs where there normal path does not exist). |
| Example | -xpath=c:\temp |
| Alias | -XP |
