   SWORD    xExt,yExt;    /* Extents, in world coordinates */

   /* CGM Metafile bits follow (must be <= 64K bytes total) */
} CDCGMMETA;

Description :

Identifies a CGM metafile embedded in a rich text field. This record must be preceded by a CDGRAPHIC record. A CDCGMMETA record may contain all or part of a CGM metafile, and is limited to 65,536 bytes (64K).
