Import 3D DWG with point objects

Is there a way to import a DWG that has a lot of those survey points as point objects in the right height into Archicad. I want then to export the x,y,z coordinates to create the mesh from survey points.
I have to avoid using Autocad to export the coordinates.

thanks!

If you open the 3D DWG as an object (CTRL + SHIFT + O), you might get a 3D script with the coordinates. You just need to convert these to the XYZ format after with a text editor.

Maybe someone who has more experience importing XYZ files can help out there.
