Explode DBText To Geometry Using Design Automation API

Default blog image

I received a query from one of  our Technical Sales Specialist whose customer would like to automate a design workflow using Forge Design Automation one aspect of work flow is to explode Text objects in to Geometry [polylines and arcs].

We have an express tool  available for AutoCAD called TXTEXP, unfortunately this tool is not available for Forge, I  have created a C# program which explodes a text object in to geometry, this custom program can be referenced in a Forge Activity.
