Just a suggestion: ARC/INFO 5.0+ can produce IGES files; perhaps Jef
Poskanzer's package (or some other similar) can help out from there?

You don't specify whether you want to convert a coverage (or some coverages)
to CGM format, or whether you want to convert, say, a plotfile.  Some
ARC/INFO commands start from the coverage (eg ARCDLG), while some start
from a plotfile (eg PLOTSIF).
