Hi Kenny,

Thank you for reaching out to us! May I refer you to this article:  ZBF Import\Export?

I think you case falls into what is stated here: 

Hence I think you need to use farfieldexact - Script command before zbfwrite - Script command.

I think this Application Gallery example is using this concept: Integrated microlens and grating coupler for photonic integrated circuits

I hope this was helpful but let me know if you have any further questions.

Kind Regards,

Niki
