You must have Creo Elements/Direct Modeling installed on your machine to run the Creo View Adapter for Creo Elements/Direct Modeling.

The Creo View Adapter for Creo Elements/Direct Modeling requires a run-time license for publishing files.

For the Creo Elements/Direct Modeling versions 20.3 and later, the basic conversion of Creo View data can be accomplished without the license. Basic conversion supports the publishing of Creo Elements/Direct Modeling 3D and 2D formats, but excludes alternate format publishing. Make sure to select Viewable converter for Creo View during the installation of Creo Elements/Direct Modeling on your worker machine.
