Convert LDD Key File	Allows the user to select a Key Description file created in Land Desktop to be imported into Civil 3D. For future convenience this process should be carried out on a new drawing after which the imported file information can be saved to a drawing template.
Convert Civil Cad Correlation	Allows the users to select a CivilCad Correlation file (OUT) to be imported into Civil 3D Key Description file with associated Point Styles. Shown below is asample of the required format for the file.

Switch Civil Cad Coding	Many existing data sets have the string number precede the description code to suit requirements of different software packages. Stringer requires the numeric String number to be after the code. This function will swap the code with the string number. Note that it is only applicable with alpha codes as Stringer will string any numeric code with a minimum of 4 digits by default or one more digit than the number referenced in the Numeric.dat file Example 01EB becomes EB01 or, for numeric coding, 01102 becomes 10201
Import CivilCad AS5	Allows the user to select a Civilcad ASCII 5 file (AS5) to be imported into Civil 3D,creating a point group called CIVILCAD_ and a surface, also called CIVILCAD_. The point group is created with all points, and then excludes the points flagged in the CivilCad file as non-Contourable. This point group is associated with the new surface, which also has the breaklines added.The result is a surface that reflects the build information in the as5 file.
Import Geocomp File	Allows the user to import a GEOCOMP file (PTS and STR) into Civil 3D,bringing in points and strings
Export Breaklines to Fault File	Creates a fault file (*.flt) of the breaklines that are in the selected Surface.If only one surface exists then the surface selection is automatic #Stringer Fault file from Surface SURVEY S1110.895320 1830.728095 101.064928 BB1 1110.718403 1826.122919 101.076466 1110.541485 1821.517742 101.088004 1110.364568 1816.912565 101.099543 1107.200061 1816.301136 101.067110 S1122.320525 1833.967723 98.623125 BB11 1126.068717 1829.919841 98.794631
Replace AEC Points	Replaces all of the Points in the Civil 3D drawing with either an attributed block called POINT or with plain TEXT. The point block has 3 attributes: DESC for the Full Description, taken from the Key Description Table ELEV for the elevation POINT for the point number Each of the point markers assigned from the Point Styles are also inserted, with the programme attempting to emulate the scale and rotation of the symbols. The layer for the symbol is also used.
Replace Carlson Points	Replaces all Carlson points with Civil3D points
Export Block	Exports all Blocks in the current drawing to individual drawing files. It is effectively an automated wblock.
Import/ Export Layers	Exports all of the layers in the current drawing to a CSV file, which can then be imported into a new drawing, or, more likely, a drawing file from a client that does not use your layer structure.
