I am looking for a library, which can convert CAD files(DWG, DXF) into SVG format. The library should be able to run on Linux platform. Can anyone tell me which library can do this?

CAD Conversion App allows easily export DWG to SVG drawings and save the result to PDF, PSD, WMF, SVG, PNG, JPG, PSD and other raster images, vector images. Conversion App is a free application powered by Aspose. CAD - professional .
The DXF file format is a CAD file format that was designed to produce an exact representation of AutoCad DWF files. Although Origin is not designed to accept DXF files, you can use Inkscape to convert some of your two-dimensional data into an SVG file that is cuttable with Origin.
SVG stands for Scalable Vector Graphic. Essentially it's a drawing that you can change the scale of without losing any quality. DXF stands for Drawing eXchange File. This is an AutoCAD file that is open sourced so multiple programs can open it instead of the AutoCAD only version DWG.
Try these tools.

The OpenDesignAlliance currently provides the only useful implementation of such a thing.
You want Theiga and Theiga for .NET and Java .
In 2013, ODA used the Java support provided by SWIG to create "Teigha for Java".
Teigha for Java includes the following:
Also, if you're using C#, WoutWare CadLib would be a very good fully managed commercial option for converting DWG/DXF to SVG (while preserving layers). And it also works on Linux and Mac with .NET-Core (no native binaries required).
