Hi,
The default formats list only includes the 16-bit Windows Metafile (WMF)
format. The attached patch adds the 32-bit Enhanced Metafile (EMF)
format, which is the replacement for WMF.
I also added support for the metafile2eps conversion utility that I have
written (based on other open-source utilities) and will be uploaded to
the wiki this week.
wmf2eps does the same thing (it also supports both WMF and EMF) but
costs $20. That's why I have created an open-source alternative.
Is this patch OK to apply?
This is nice!
Are you aware / have you used libwmf? Or emftoeps?
I use the Adobe Postscript printer drivers that are bundled with Windows
to do the actual conversion. So the picture is printed to a special
Postscript printer and the output is redirected to an EPS file. The page
size and bounding box are automatically configured to match the picture
size.
This is the only reliable way that works with every file. libwmf doesn't
even support EMF files.
