What is a CGM file?

CGM or Computer Graphics Metafile is a vector graphic file commonly used for CAD drawings. This file format is encoded with one of three different methods. The first one is the so-called binary encoding. It enables software programs to read all files quickly and efficiently. The second one is a character-based encoding that produces the smallest possible file size and saves storage space while allowing faster data transfers. The third one is a clear-text encoding that lets users read and modify the file’s content. CGM files are compatible with TurboCAD, ACD System Canvas, CorelDRAW, Corel PaintShop, Autodesk AutoCAD, Adobe Illustrator, AppleWorks, PTC Creo View Express, etc.

What is a XCF file?

XCF or eXperimental Computing Facility is an image format developed by GIMP, an open-source image editor. Because of frequent format revisions, XCF is not recommended as a data-interchange format. XCF format supports layers, channels, transparency, and even paths and guides. However, XCF doesn’t support the undo option for saving history. The compression used for this format is with the RLE algorithm. To open and edit XCF format with other applications rather than GIMP is limited and challenging but not impossible. Image editors such as XnView, Inkscape, IrfanView, Paint.NET, DBGallery, etc., offer partial viewing and modifying of XCF files.
