Product: PDFNetJava 64-bit (Linux)

I was trying to run sample CAD2PDFTest but always failed with error:

"File Name: construction drawings color-28.05.18.dwg

PDFNet is running in demo mode.

I also tried other CAD files but got same error.

p.s. I installed the required mesa libraries in my Ubuntu machine (libgl1-mesa-dev libx11-dev libglu1-mesa-dev)

Thanks

For checking missing dependencies, you can follow along with this guide using the CAD2PDF Module instead of the HTML2PDF:
