Tom,
They should be in the coordinate system of the job they were recorded under, the units are just meters. Open up the project in TBC and drag and drop the PNT file in there. The importer should recognize its a PNT file and will know that the file coming in is in meters and the order ENZD then make the conversion.

Geoffrey, what is the best way to pull those files off in the project coordinate system?
With Siteworks we pull the .spj.

PNT files are of fixed format, the co-ordinate order is fixed and the units are always in metres.

Hello, I have downloaded the points file (.pnt) from Earthworks. The coordinates are not correct. They should be around N 2000, E2000 and El 600.0.
Coordinates appear correct when storing. Please see attached.
Thanks
