My girlfriend has made some simple organizational charts in MacDraw 
on her Macintosh.  They are composed mainly of lines, boxes, text, 
etc.  The company she's working for is very much True Blue, and would 
like her to transfer the charts to some IBM software package; they 
don't really care which software, just so it's on an IBM.
However, the resulting files should be in an editable
object-oriented format; that is, something as simple as converting
to a GIF bitmap wouldn't be good enough.

Not knowing much about the IBM world myself, could someone please 
tell me about any IBM graphics programs that can read MacDraw PICT 
files (these are a standard in the Mac world and I would expect some 
IBM programs can read them) once they are transfered to an MS-DOS 
disk?  

Please respond by e-mail since I don't necessarily read this 
newsgroup on a regular basis.

Thanks in advance.
