Converting loosing details.

I am evaluating CS_DWG.DLL for a customer.
Using it for batch converting via XNview's command-line tool NCONVERT.

It seems like the converted files looses a lot of details.

original file
http://www.kram-consult.dk/cadsofttools/R-Y01.DWG

converted file:
http://www.kram-consult.dk/cadsofttools/R-Y01.TIF

Different files and output formats tested. Is the reason, that the trial version of the plugin shows 'limited' details?
If then, it is difficault to do a real test before bying

Dear Gert Krabsen,

Unregistered version of CS_DWG.DLL has the only restriction. It is a trial message across the screen.

The loss of details is caused by low resolution of the output file when converting vector DWG file to raster TIFF file.

CS_Manager (download link: http://www.cadsofttools.com/Download/CS_Manager.zip) allows opening drawings in color in XNView up to 20 000 pixels width. Please remember that it requires large amounts of Windows memory.
Use 'Maximum Width or Height of Drawing' edit box for entering desired resolution.

Updated CS_DWG.DLL is available on:

The set of pugins for XnView is available on:

Thank you for the answer.
I have tried CS-manager. It changes the _size_ of the output-file, but not the _details_.

My customer send me another DWG-file, where the converting went well, so maybe the reason is different 'formats' in the DWG-files.
We will examine this a bit deeper..

We've tested this file. Some lines are really missing. Now we are working on fixing this bug.
