File-conversion utilities

GDDM V3R2 General Information
GC33-0866-03



The GDDM Base programs provide utilities for converting files from one format to another. These include:

  • ADMUGIF, which converts a GDDM ADMGDF (graphics data format) file to a Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) file in the VM/CMS and MVS/TSO environments. The GIF file can be downloaded to a workstation and then used on the Internet.
    
    
  • ADMUCG, which converts a Computer Graphics Metafile (CGM) to a GDDM ADMGDF (graphics data format) file in the VM/CMS and MVS/TSO environments. ADMGDF files contain GDF orders, whose format is published in the GDDM Base Application Programming Reference book.
    
    
  • ADMUGC, which converts an ADMGDF file to CGM format in the VM/CMS and MVS/TSO environments. GDDM supports binary encoding of the CGM, as defined in ISO 8632-3.
    
    
  • ADMUPCx, which converts files from ADMGDF format to Picture Interchange Format (PIF), and from PIF to ADMGDF, in the VM/CMS and MVS/TSO environments.
    
    

These utilities enable graphics data to be exchanged between GDDM and other applications.
