I am looking for information about CGM (computer graphic metafile)
files. I would greatly apreciate any information on the layout and
content of the CGM files or the names of any references that document
the CGM standard.
Also, does anyone know of any public domain software for converting CGM
files to other graphical file formats. I am going to have to write a
program that processes CGM files, but I don't want to have to start
from scratch.
Thanks in advance.

THE reference that documents the CGM standard is (drum roll, please) THE STANDARD! Call ANSI, Sales Dept, (212) 354-3300, and ask for ANSI X3.122-1986.
