Steve,

if you really have to have a cgm, then you may have a problem.

SDIMontage is a cgm editor that sometimes can read other formats (ie
postscript) but a lack of format standards is a pain here. 

Image Alchemy is a neat cheapish widget that converts image formats (but NOT
cgms) into other formats and rtl's (a sort of native HP plot language). The
Windows/NT version also displays a thumbnail of the image prior to routing
to a plotter. 

Alchemy comes in both UNIX and DOS (yea !) versions; the latter runs fine in
an NT/DOS window, though the interface, while dead clunky, does save one the
pain of complex command line strings that will be found in the UNIX version.
But it works fine.
