Steps to Convert CGM to EMF via C#

.NET programmers can easily load & convert CGM files to EMF in just a few lines of code.

  1. Load CGM file with Image.Load method
  2. Set an object of CadRasterizationOptions with page height & width
  3. Create an instance of EmfOptions class and set its VectorRasterizationOptions property
  4. Call Image.Save method while passing the resultant file path & object of EmfOptions

System Requirements

Before running the .NET conversion code, make sure that you have the following prerequisites.

  • Microsoft Windows or a compatible OS with .NET Framework, .NET Core.
  • Development environment like Microsoft Visual Studio.
  • Aspose.CAD for .NET DLL referenced in your project.

    CGM What is CGM File Format?

    Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) is free, platform-independent, international standard metafile format for storing and exchanging vector graphics (2D), raster graphics, and text. CGM uses an object-oriented approach and many function provisions for image production. CGM uses these object-oriented characteristics for remolding graphical elements to render an image. A metafile contains necessary information that defines other files. In CGM, a text-based source file contains all graphical elements that can be later compiled into a binary file. Basically, CGM is a way to facilitate 2D graphical data interchange, independent from any particular platform, or device.

    EMF What is EMF File Format?

    Enhanced metafile format (EMF) stores graphical images device-independently. Metafiles of EMF comprises of variable-length records in chronological order that can render the stored image after parsing on any output device. These variable-length records can be definitions of enclosed objects, commands for drawing, and graphics properties critical to render the image accurately. When a device opens an EMF metafile using its own graphics environment, the proportions, dimensions, colors and other graphic properties of original image remains same regardless of the opening device platform.
