Problem

Does InterPlot create geospatially coordinated PDF files? 

Solution

If you publish a DGN file that has a geographic coordinate system assigned to the active model, the ProjectWise InterPlot plotting interfaces will include the geographic coordinate system in the published PDF document. You can then use Acrobat (Reader or Professional) 9.0 or later to display longitude/latitude values. This functionality was added in SS1 (8.11.7.89). If their dgn has a GCS (geo coordinate system) and we are not producing geo information then they should check the message center in Microstation for errors.
