The Computer Graphics Metafile is an open international standard that is being used for 2D vector and raster graphics, as well as text, being defined by the ISO/IEC 8632 Standard. In contrast to other image formats, the CGM format is simply a text file that contains the information about the picture, in such a way being totally platform-independent. The first implementation of CGM was simply created as a streamed representation of a sequence of Graphical Kernel System primitive operations, but it was subsequently improved. The Air

Perhaps the most important concept to grasp when first studying SVG is its scalability. Graphics aren't limited by fixed pixels. Like vector graphics, you can make scalable graphics larger or smaller without distorting them. This is very important for designing across resolutions. Scalable graphics adjust to the available screen resolution. This alone makes SVG attractive to Web designers, as it solves one of the most frustrating issues we face: creating designs that are as interoperable, yet as visually rich, as possible. SVG elements are based on

Abstract Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) is an ISO standard, defined by ISO/IEC 8632:1999, for the interchange of 2D vector and mixed vector/raster graphics. WebCGM is a profile of CGM, which adds Web linking and is optimized for Web applications in technical illustration, electronic documentation, geophysical data visualization, and similar fields. First published (1.0) in 1999 and followed by a second (errata) release in 2001, WebCGM unifies potentially diverse approaches to CGM utilization in Web document applications. It therefore represents a
