Load DWG file on Client's Browser

    Hi, I am developing a web application in asp.Net which will allow
    clients to view dwg files (stored on the server) through their
    browsers. So I am looking for -
    1. An ActiveX control that can be embedded in a web page and the
    drawing file to be loaded into it. But each client will require that
    control to be installed, I suppose. (Correct me if I'm wrong - as I am
    new to internet development)
    As autodesk is not supporting voloview, is there any alternative?
    2. Or I want some kind of API that can convert dwg to PDF / DWF so that
    can be loaded on to client's browser. I evaluated most of third party
    tools, but all are giving some problems converting my source dwg
    properly as it contains chinese characters.
    Can anyone help me please, as it is very urgent for me.
    Thanking you in anticipation.

    I have used Autodesk DWG trueview activeX control but it failed to show
    the source file and I got blank web page with only border of activeX
    control.
    <OBJECT style="Z-INDEX: 101; LEFT: 64px; WIDTH: 632px; POSITION:
    absolute; TOP: 48px; HEIGHT: 440px"
    classid="clsid:A662DA7E-CCB7-4743-B71A-D817F6D575DF" VIEWASTEXT>
    <PARAM NAME="_cx" VALUE="16722">
    <PARAM NAME="_cy" VALUE="11642">
    <PARAM NAME="BackColor" VALUE="12500670">
    <PARAM NAME="EmbedDoc" VALUE="0">
    <PARAM NAME="Src" VALUE="D:\DWFs\Test_Gen2C.dwf"> (or any URL)
    <PARAM NAME="ViewerParams" VALUE="">
    </OBJECT>
