Hello.
CADViewX 8 require Ghostscript 32-bit library to import PDF files. The library can be downloaded here: http://downloads.ghostscript.com/public/. Please make sure the 32-bit library version installed on your PC. CADViewX Lite searches Ghostscript automatically. Unfortunately current CADViewX Lite version access Ghostscript successfully under 32-bit OS versions only. Accessing Ghostscript from 64-bit systems will be available with one of future releases. On the other hand CADViewX Pro includes Ghostscript path setting that allows using under 64-bit versions.

Hello.
We haven't time schedule for software releases, sorry. The limitation for using Ghostscript with CADViewX Lite under 32 bit OS versions only will be fixed in one of next releases, possibly the next one.
