CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a format for storing graphics in multiple manners suited for different devices, including vector, raster, and character-based graphics, but it is primarily used for vector graphics. It is standardized as ISO/IEC 8632, and is used in some specialized fields such as engineering and aviation.
