DESCRIPTION

BS ISO/IEC 8632-3:1999


This standard BS ISO/IEC 8632-3:1999 Information technology. Computer graphics. Metafile for the storage and transfer of picture description information is classified in these ICS categories:
  • 35.140 Computer graphics
  • 35.040.30 Coding of graphical and photographical information

This part of ISO/IEC 8632 specifies a binary encoding of the Computer Graphics Metafile. For each of the elements specified in ISO/IEC 8632-1, this part specifies an encoding in terms of data types.

For each of these data types, an explicit representation in terms of bits, octets and words is specified. For some data types, the exact representation is a function of the precisions being used in the metafile, as recorded in the Metafile Descriptor.

This encoding of the Computer Graphics Metafile will, in many circumstances, minimize the effort required to generate and interpret the metafile.
