- Is there any graphics application on the Mac that can read CGM graphics
- metafiles? Or is there a translation/conversion routine to put the file
- into a format that MacDraw (something like that) can use?
-
- I am working with a mapping package (Zycor Zmap+) on a Sun SparcStation which
- produces CGM metafiles for hardcopy. People tell me CGM is a common metafile
- format used by many workstations and mainframes. My colleagues even use
- those files on the PC (ugh :-)). I want to be able to look them straight
- in the face and say 'I can do that too on the Mac'.
-
- Can anybody help? Thanks.
