ImageGear Professional for Unix
Support for Metafile Formats

Metafiles contain vector (or geometric) specifications and bitmap pixel data. Vectors, in the realm of computer graphics, define shapes and location of shapes in terms of their relative location within the page.

ImageGear supports the following formats that contain vector data:

For all formats, except WMF, the vector data is ignored; only the bitmap data is read and/or written.

When ImageGear loads a Windows Metafile (WMF), it automatically converts each vector specification to bitmap data. The shapes and lines declared by the vector specifications appear in the image, but the original vector instructions are not saved.
