Save as DWG on trial

I am trying to save S-Office sample as DWG file. 

However it seems that only a cover page is exported with some 

text regarding SPF.

I use  Archicad 25 with trial license. 

Is this functionality blocked on the trial  ? 

Thanks

This article states the trial license is fully functional for 30 days.

However the Archicad files can only be read on the computer it was created from.

I am not sure if that is the same for DWG files you create.

It could also have something to do with the DWG translator you are using when saving and where you are saving from (the Archicad model or the layout book)?

I am using the file/save as menu, selecting the "for further editing" translator

as saving as DWG file, to some folder on my development machine. 

 

Meantime, if you guys can provide me with a DWG version of the S-Office sample

with geometry and MEP elements I will not be stuck on this issue. 

 

Thanks
