Other restrictions
▪ The system can read a Jw-cad file of version 2.23 or after.
▪ When opening a Jw_cad file in RootPro CAD, layer groups from 0 to F in Jw_cad will be loaded after being exploded to part drawings. At the same time, layer groups from 0 to F will be prepared, and layers under the same name will be created in each group. When a layer has no data, its layer or layer group will not be created.
The layer group 0 can be converted to paper in the load setting, only when the scale is 1/1.
▪ Blocks with attributes of part drawings in SXF are converted to part drawings in RootPro CAD. For the part drawing of the geodetic coordinate system, set the character string "$$SXF_FG" to the explanation of the part drawing.
▪ Blocks with attributes of drawing groups in SXF are exploded.
▪ Blocks containing shapes with arrows such as dimensions and points are converted after being exploded to general shapes.
▪ Line widths set for shapes are registered as user-defined line widths in order of data to the extent possible. Widths exceeding a registrable number are registered as No. 1.
Data using basic widths with "Set the line width in 1/100mm" activated are registered as user-defined line widths to the extent possible. Widths exceeding a registrable number are registered as No. 1.

Data using basic widths with "Set the line width in 1/100mm" deactivated are converted as follows.
Jw_cad Line Color 1 -> RootPro CAD 1: 0.13
Jw_cad Line Color 2 -> RootPro CAD 2: 0.18
Jw_cad Line Color 3 -> RootPro CAD 3: 0.25
Jw_cad Line Color 4 -> RootPro CAD 4: 0.35
Jw_cad Line Color 5 -> RootPro CAD 5: 0.5
Jw_cad Line Color 6 -> RootPro CAD 6: 0.7
Jw_cad Line Color 7 -> RootPro CAD 7: 1.00
Jw_cad Line Color 8 -> RootPro CAD 8: 1.40
Jw_cad Line Color 9 (projection line) -> RootPro CAD 1: 0.13
▪ Attribute flag of Text.
If there is a value representing "shadow" in the text flag of Jw_cad, "ShadowDrawing" is set to the attribute name of the text of RootPro CAD and "Z" is set to the attribute value.
If there is a value representing "true north" in the text attribute flag of Jw_cad, "ShadowDrawing" is set to the attribute name of the text of RootPro CAD and "DueNorth" is set to the attribute value.
