I'm currently working with a Multibus II iRMX system, for which
the graphics format is CGI/CGM, but does not conform to the
current standard.  It is, however, compatible with the earlier
standard, VDI/VDM (Virtual Device Metafile).

Are there any software tools that can convert these metafiles
to more common graphics formats?

(I scanned the wuarchive SIMTEL20 mirror with no luck, and couldn't
 find a comp.graphics FAQ, if such a creature exists.)
