Hi,

I need to read the text in dwg files using Java. I know that they call it a textObject (Every item is an object in a dwg file). But how to read/decode these?
Does any api exists for reading them?
Any help?

Thanx in Advance!

I don't have any personal knowledge here, but Googling for
"java dwg cad" gives 35,000 hits; many Java DWG-reading programs are on the first page. Some are commercial and perhaps some are not -- I'll leave it up to you to investigate.
