Remapping

When I use SaveAs command or BatchConverter in v8, I can specify remapping
file. If there a way to specify it while upgrading from v7 to v8 whith the
File->Open command?

I make changes in convert options, but they live only in the current
session. How can I save my options as default options for the current
workspace?

Thanks.

 

To control how levels are mapped when a v7 file is converted to v8, point
MS_V7TOV8_CSVNAME to your CSV file.

 

But I want to remap not levels, but fonts!
For example, I need to convert vector font "times" in v7 file to TTF font
"Times New Roman" while saving this file in v8. I can do it using
BatchConverter, but I can't do it when I open v7 file whith File->Open
command.
When I saving v8 file back to v7, I need to convert TTF font back to RSC. In
the SaveAs options I set up a remap file, but my settings lives only in the
current session! In the MicroStation/J all the converting settings are
stored for the future sessions, but in v8 - not

 

You can use a CSV file to remap levels, fonts, colours and so forth.
