[solved] Supported DWG format by dwg2bmp

[HuachenLi]

Hi,

I have tried dwg2bmp and qcad trial version to convert dwg file to a picture and it works very well for new dwg format such as R21.
But when I tried some R14 dwg files(on ubuntu 14.04), an invalid bmp file is created, without any error information.
These R14 files could be opened by qcad on OSX correctly. (on MAC OSX 10.11)

Could you please help to confirm why this file could not be correctly converted ?
I have attached the dwg file, converted bmp file and log file.

Thanks.
Huachen

Hello,

What are the exact command line arguments passed to dwg2bmp? Thanks.

Hi,

dwg2bmp -f -r 100 -m 0 -b white XXX.dwg

Thanks

Please note that with a resolution of 100 pixels per drawing unit (-r 100), you are attempting to create a bitmap that is about 230000x360000 pixels large (~300GB). Please use a lower resolution (e.g. -r 1).

It works after change -r parameter.
Thanks a lot!
