About .WMF

WMF (Windows Metafile) is a graphics format that stores a sequence of drawing records/commands rather than only pixels, making it primarily vector-oriented (though it can include bitmap-related records). The format is specified by Microsoft Open Specifications as a record-based file structure interpreted by Windows graphics components.

.wmf is a Windows Metafile vector graphics format used by Windows graphics (GDI) and many Windows applications. You can open it in Windows apps that understand metafiles or convert it with tools like ImageMagick.
