Re: [Inkscape-devel] Export as .WMF gives Errors/ Inkscape-devel Digest, Vol 64, Issue 13
Hi Alvin,
No, my machine embroidery software will only input .wmf files. It doesn't even list .emf format as being recognized :) Thanks though!
Best Gina
is there any chance that .emf output might be suitable for you, since .wmf is essentially just a subset of .emf, and Inkscape (on Windows) supports emf output.

well, finally it came back to me. You can generate .wmf files on Windows 7 as follows:
- install Python 2.6.6 - file python-2.6.6.msi - install the Python package Python Image Library - file PIL-1.1.7.win32-py2.6.exe - install the Python package Report Lab - file reportlab-2.5.win32-py2.6.exe - install uniconvertor 1.1.4 - file uniconvertor-1.1.4.win32-py2.6.exe - the uniconvertor file may be hard to find, so I have attached it here.
- confirm the installation by running this command from DOS: C:\Python26>scripts\uniconv ERROR: file is not found! UniConvertor 1.1.4
- perform the file conversion using the command: C:\Python26>scripts\uniconv filein.svg out.wmf
- you will get some warnings which you can ignore and also hopefully a wmf file called out.wmf. - I have done this on Windows 7 (32 bit) to confirm that it works. This particular version of Uniconvertor I think has the deficiency that it will not output text as text, but in your case that is probably not a problem
