2-D IGES
IGES - an acronym for "Initial Graphics Exchange Specification" - is an interface developed for the United States National Bureau of Standards to enable the transfer of geometric data between diverse CAD/CAM systems primarily in the area of mechanical design.
IGES files can be read by HiCAD, processed and released for data exchange.
