exported features will be saved as tags in the resulting file. Note that this can significantly slow down your
export in some cases. If the Set Global Origin to the Lower Left of Design Plane Rather than the Center of the
Design Plane option is set, the global origin is set to the minimum valid negative values rather than at (0,0) as
is standard. If the Replace Dark Line Colors with White option is set, any lines that are near black in color will
be replaced with a white line automatically. This is useful for getting dark colored lines to show up when the
exported DGN file is viewed in an application that uses a black background.
Note: Only registered users of Global Mapper are able to export data to any format.
Export DLG-O Command
The Export DLG-O command allows the user to export any loaded vector data sets to a native format USGS
DLG-O (Digital Line Graph Optional format) file.
When selected, the command displays the DLG-O Export Options dialog (pictured below) which allows the
user to set up the export. The dialog consists of a DLG-O Options panel which allows the user to set up the
banner name, DCU (digital cartographic unit or quad name), and category name, a Gridding panel, and an
Export Bounds panel which allows the user to set up the portion of the loaded vector data they wish to export.
If possible, the fields on the DLG-O Options panel are automatically filled in with the best guesses available
based on the currently loaded data. The user is free to change the values to fit their needs.
