Windows Metafile Formats (WMF and EMF)
The Windows Metafile (WMF and EMF) formats are vector formats that may or may not also contain a raster image.
EMF/WMF Vector files can be read and written as raster images in the non-vector toolkits.
Vector read/write support for these formats is provided in the LEADTOOLS Vector Imaging Pro toolkit and is unlocked when the Vector features are unlocked.
File constants associated with this file format are:
