Here is an interesting idea from Daniel Monsén: in the video below, he describes using bimframe connect (which I previously posted about a couple of times, including here) to translate data for a Revit project.
In simple steps:
- Export a given schedule (such as rooms) using bimframe connect addin to Google Sheets
- Use the googletranslate formula to translate the data from the source to a given target language
- Copy the translated over the top of the original source data
- Import the translated data back into Revit using bimframe connect
The one comment I would make in addition to the video embedded below – if you want to quickly apply a formula to an entire column worth of data in Google Sheets, you should definitely use ARRAYFORMULA. If you put an array formula in the top row of a given column, it will apply itself to every cell in that column. For example:
=ArrayFormula( GoogleTranslate( B2:B ; “en” ; “nl” ) )

Hi Luke.
I hope everything i fine.
I just want to see if you seen our trick to translate a revit file to another language, using bimframe connect.
Maybe something for your blog?

EDIT Harry said that the latest version is the one on Autodesk Exchange Apps
I previously posted about the ADN file upgrader here. Since then Harry has created a more powerful upgrader for Revit 2014 available on Exchange, and he has also released a 2015 version which is not on Exchange yet – see his post with direct download link below.
If you are ready to upgrade files to Revit 2015, here is a 2015 File Upgrader installer.
To map fonts, edit shxfontmap.txt using a text editor. This file resides in the following location: %APPDATA%AutodeskRevit
For each TrueType font to map, add a line with the following format:
filename.shxFontname
where:
- filename.shx is the name of the AutoCAD SHX font to map from
- is the TAB key on the keyboard
- Fontname is the font to be mapped to
Save and close the file.
You do not need to restart Revit for the font mapping to take effect.

“Xrev UpRev enables you to quickly apply a revision to many sheets. Simply select the Revision you wish to apply, then select all the sheets you want to apply it to, click OK and its done …”
Functionally, I assume it goes through and ticks the “Revision on Sheet” box for you on multiple sheets.
For a non-addin method, you could use the Paste Aligned workflow described here.

Mark Cronin has put together a nice guide describing how to clean up point cloud data in Civil3D, make a surface and then import that into Revit for topography creation. This is an alternative to using ScanToBIM for topography creation from point data, and if you already have Civil3D it might be the better route.
