Windows Meta File
(W-M-F)
A graphic file format used by Microsoft to transfer graphics between Windows applications. Both bitmap and vector graphics are supported by WMF. A variation on WMF is and extended version known as EMF.
There are many programs that will view WMF files. Many that edit them will convert all components to a bitmap before allowing you to edit the file. Microsoft's PowerPoint will edit vector WMF files if you have the Office Suite. For viewing graphics an excellent (and free) file viewer is IrfanView, found at: http://www.irfanview.com/
