I would like to convert Ideas Drawing (.mdf) to CGM / PDF using command line augments.
I see stand alone Ideas tool does this job. But, the reason why I want to achieve via command line is, I'm trying to set up a custom Dispatcher translation set up for Ideas Data. I can get CGM files out of the OOTB Ideas Dispatcher translations but the we are not satisfied by the way we get the output. So I want to write a custom batch program to produce the CGM or PDF by giving .mdf file as input.
For this reason, I would like to know if there is any third party executable or any program offered by Siemens by which I can achieve this so that I can use the same command line augments in my custom program.
Please let me know this information. It will be much helpful for me.

Thanks, Sunil.
