DGN (short for ”design”) is a file format used by Computer Aided Design (CAD) software used by Bentley Systems MicroStation. DGN files store 2D/3D project data.
JT files are used by a lightweight CAD type of 3D modeling software. The format was developed by Siemens PLM Software. JT files hold coordinate data, NURBS surfaces, non-geometrical data, and metadata.
After converting the file to the new format, you will be able to use other programs to support it. Keep in mind, however, that the DGN file after converting to JT may differ slightly from the original. The most important information should be kept, but if you want the file after conversion from DGN to JT to be the same, you have to do this carefully and choose the proper application from the list below.
There is no guarantee, of course, that the conversion will come up to all your expectations, but it will certainly help you. If, after all, the effect of converting DGN to JT does not meet your expectations, you can simply try to find on the Internet a different version of your file in DGN format, properly converted to a JT file by someone else. If this fails, use the information provided in the further part of the website.
If after converting the file DGN the desired result was not achieved, you can try to change the format of DGN file to other than JT. On our website you will find more information on the following conversion options
Unfortunately, if after performing the two previously described steps (trying to find your DGN file converted by someone else, and the attempt to convert it to JT on your own) you still have a problem with your file, then there are only a few solutions left. You can once again try to find and install an application that can open the DGN file in its original format (without conversion to JT file). Such a solution will be difficult to implement, but it certainly will give the best result.
