CGM says its not a picture

Post by bryonfriesen »

Trying to convert a cgm to a jpg. When I try converting it, it states that it is not a picture. The image does display in my Arbortext program. Is there something different about my cgm. I have attached a sample.

Thanks

Bryon

This was exported as a CGM version 4.

I've posted a topic about this. It's the same problem i have with *.MIX files created with Microsoft Photodraw and Picture It!

I believe that XnConvert could read them, but i've got the same message. Maybe there's a pluggin to download anywhere?

Thanks a lot

Hi Pierre, under compatibility it says cgm is supported. Do you mean version 4 of cgm is not supported, or cgm to jpg is not supported.

Thanks

You have CGM support by thid party plugin CADIMAGE
In order to enable support for these vector formats, you have to download…
… from the CadSoftTools site (Plugins for third-party programs) and extract the contents of the archive into the Plugins subdirectory of your XnView installation.
Installation of the CS Plugins Manager (CS_Manager.exe) is optional.
