Abstract
The computer graphics metafile (CGM) allows for the capture of static graphical images into compact, transferable files of a standard format. The CGM was implemented to answer the need for a single CGM format that would integrate the creation and delivery of technical information in the corporation. The relationship of the CGM standard to the concepts of an openly architectured network and to the interchange of electronic compound documents is discussed
