Andreas, I have not attempted to maintain this driver for some time, and I suspect there have been changes in the dwgdirect library that may be a problem. If you try it, I'm sure we would appreciate a report. I would also note there is a new open source dwg effort ongoing and that as that matures we might be able to utilize that.
