Convert CGM to SVGZ in Java & J2SE Applications

Convert Password Protected CGM to SVGZ

Accurately load and convert documents that are protected with a password within your Java based applications. The file format conversion API also supports rendering remote documents from different sources including S3, Blob, FTP, Stream, URL or a local disk.

Create new instance of Converter class and pass source document path
Instantiate the proper ConvertOptions class e.g. (PdfConvertOptions, WordProcessingConvertOptions, SpreadsheetConvertOptions etc.)
Call convert method of Converter class instance and pass filename for the converted document

Source Document Information Extraction

The documents information extraction feature not only allows getting the basic information about the source document file but it also supports extracting some valuable file-format specific information such as project start and end dates of a Microsoft Project file, any printing restrictions on a PDF document, list of folders enclosed in an Outlook data file etc.

Convert popular document file formats on different operating systems such as Windows, Linux or macOS while using development environments such as NetBeans, IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse.

Convert Specific Word Pages to PDF in Java

Java document conversion API allows you to choose selected pages from the source document and accurately convert to the supported document format. The code example below shows how to convert the 1st and 4th pages of a Word document to the resultant PDF file.

Create a new instance of Converter class and load input (Word) document
Instantiate the proper ConvertOptions class e.g. (PdfConvertOptions, WordProcessingConvertOptions, SpreadsheetConvertOptions etc)
Set setPages property of the ConvertOptions instance and mention specific page number to be converted
Call convert method of Converter class instance and pass filename (PDF) for the converted document

Caching Converted Document Results

In some cases, the converted document size is bigger and it takes time to be converted. The document conversion library offers the caching feature to efficiently manage such situations and speed up the repetitive conversion process. Enable the ICache interface to work with custom cache implementation using the extension point and control the cache conversion, as you prefer.

The conversion result is saved to the local drive by default but any type of cache storage can be supported by implementing the appropriate interfaces such as Amazon S3, Dropbox, Google Drive, Windows Azure, Reddis or any other.

What is CGM file format?

CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a vector-based graphics file format that was developed by the International Standards Organization (ISO) in 1982. It is used for storing and exchanging 2D vector graphics, text, and bitmaps. CGM files are widely used in many industries such as engineering, mechanics, architecture and 3D modeling. CGM files typically have the file extension .cgm or .cg and can be opened and edited with a number of software programs such as Adobe Illustrator and CorelDraw. CGM files are considered to be superior to other standard graphics formats such as JPG, GIF and BMP because they are more efficient, allowing for better image quality and smaller file sizes. Additionally, CGM files can be used across different computer platforms and operate properly on multiple operating systems such as Windows and Mac OS. Overall, CGM files are a reliable and efficient way of storing and exchanging vector graphics, text, and bitmaps. They are widely used all over the world, and can be found in many different industries.

What is SVGZ file format?

SVGZ is an XML-based file format that stands for Scalable Vector Graphics Zipped. It is a compressed version of the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file format and is widely used for creating high-quality vector graphics on the web. SVGZ files are designed to be small in size and highly compressible, making them ideal for web delivery, where fast loading times are essential.

SVGZ files can be used to create graphics such as logos, icons, illustrations, and charts. The format is scalable, which means that graphics can be resized without losing image quality. This makes SVGZ a popular choice for creating responsive designs that adjust to various screen sizes, including mobile devices.

One of the key benefits of SVGZ is its compatibility with a range of web browsers and design software. SVGZ files can be opened and edited in various applications, including Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape, and Sketch. They can also be displayed on most modern browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari.
