However, there is generally a limit to the number of features that can be imported in one operation. Multiple files can be selected as input, and imported at the same time.

Run the ArcToolbox tool CAD to Geodatabase, importing the DGN file into the default geodatabase.

Zoom in until the smallest text is visible, and legible, as if the file were to be printed at that specific scale. The projection must be defined for the DGN file at this point.

Added the polyline and annotation layers ONLY from the DGN files to be converted to ArcMap.

Rename the geodatabase to some appropriate name, and right-click and click Make Default Geodatabase so the output from the CAD to Geodatabase tool is directed to that specific location.

Open the ArcCatalog panel on the side of ArcMap, select the folder on the local hard drive where the output file geodatabase will be created, right-click and click New > File geodabase.

Even if the other features are not needed for the project, they will help define the extent of the annotation and allow it to properly import, and draw at the correct scale on screen. “Real” features with geometry, that is, points, lines, polygons or multipatch, must be imported into the geodatabase along with the text.

Here are the steps to get the RSC file installed for the MicroStation session and associated with the DGN files in MicroStation:
