FAQ
PNT to CGM Conversion
What are PNT files?
PNT is the file of point features in the vector format of MiraMon, a geographic information system and remote sensing program developed in Catalonia by Xavier Pons. A point layer stores separate places on a map, such as wells, villages, survey marks, or measurement stations, each as a pair of coordinates, with an optional third coordinate for height. The descriptive data of the points, such as names, codes, and measured values, are kept in a database table in the DBF format, and a text file with the .rel extension describes the layer, including its coordinate system. Unlike the line and area layers of MiraMon, a point layer needs no file of nodes, because points do not connect to each other.
What are CGM files?
CGM (Computer Graphics Metafile) is a format that contains vector graphics information (clip art, drawings) associated with graphics design or CAD programs. As opposed to other types of metafiles, such as EMF or WMF, CGM files are not only supported by Windows, but can be used on different platforms too. They are encoded using binary, character-based of clear-text encoding.
