Windows Metafile (.wmf)

The Windows Metafile (WMF) is a graphic file format used by Microsoft Windows to store vector and bitmap image data. Originating in the late 1980s, WMF files enable the efficient exchange of graphical content between applications. They serve functions like clip art storage, image rendering in documents, and transferring graphics across different software platforms. Designed to be device-independent, WMF ensures consistent image presentation regardless of the output device, maintaining visual fidelity across varying screen resolutions and printer outputs. As a legacy format, its use has diminished with the advent of more advanced graphical file formats.
