printing or saving as a cgm

printing or saving as a cgm

(OP)
does anyone know how I can save a dwg as a cgm format. My company uses this format to view all of our drawings. I am using SW2008 3.1

RE: printing or saving as a cgm

Do a google search on 'convert to cgm'  

Looks like you will have to save to an intermediate format, then convert to a cgm file.

What do you use today to convert to cgm with your other CAD software?

Cheers,

RE: printing or saving as a cgm

I used to use CGM several years ago. It is poor quality. I suggest using PDF.
Or, you can Save As .tif, click on Options, then change settings to get what you need.

Not cgm compatible, but does your company know about eDrawings or DWG editor?

cheers
