Has anyone ever done any importing of xfig into other drawing systems?
Specifically, has anyone ever done an IGES or DXF translation of a xfig 
drawing?

I've done a lot of cool drawings and layouts in xfig, and my co-workers 
want to use some of the work in CAD drawings.  So it's either convert it
or re-enter it on the CAD system. (You can guess what my preference is :} )

I realize some of the data will not come over properly (ie. Postscript fonts)
but at least getting the geometry would be acceptable at this point.

Thanks 10^6!
