[comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc] Graphics File Conversion Tools

Hello,

  I am looking for some general purpose graphics format conversion tools.
I have GRAPWK31 which is a very nice tool, but I need to be able to convert
other formats (GIF, TIFF, etc) into AutoCad type files (.DXF files) and
Harvard Graphics type files (.CGM files).  Any help finding public or
commercial packages would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

There are two main ones I know of.

The first is Hijaak.  It was the first big player on the market.  It
converts many, many different formats.

I use Hijaak.

Another tool is The Graphics Link Plus.  A "do it better than
Hijaak" product (in other words, Hijaak was there first and this
one wants to take the market).

Both are ~$90 mailorder.

Good luck,
