DWG to PDF conversion - output is blank in .NET

I have a simple dwg file and am attempting to convert it to a PDF. Using both the free online version, and the .Net C# trial package from NuGet, I get a blank PDF document.

I’ve also tried converting it to jpeg with no luck. I’ve also tried multiple source dwg files.

We’re still investigating this issue. You’ll be notified about the outcomes ASAP.

Would this be treated with higher priority if this were reported by a paid account?
