Item for this project is to support also the SVG format one in day in future It's also very difficult to edit preserving its "vectorness". Here) which however is very easy to render on Windows and is supportedīy all programs of the Microsoft Office suite and many others.

Widespread like SVG? It's simple: the Windows GDI printing system providesĭata to the printer drivers directly in EMF format thus it's "easy" to extractĮMFs from printed data using a virtual printer driver.ĮMF is an undocumented format (for the few reverse-engineered infos look Why export printed data in EMF instead of another vector format, much more For a complete list of supported formats see below.

Which supports EMF, WMF and lots of raster formats to all Windows application which have In conclusion, basically EmfPrinter allows you to add a "Save as" command Pushing and the EMF format will probably fade away in the time surpassed by open formatsĪnd when you install it, you do it at your own risk Tackle with and I'm not really motivated to face them ĮMF is not strongly supported anymore since Windows Vista XPS is the new format Microsoft is I spent various time on EmfPrinter and it now compiles under 64bit but there are lots of other troubles to It doesn't support Windows Vista and Windows 7, neither 32 bit nor 64 bit versions Raster formats, if you really need, which are much easier to edit.įor maximum fairness, I'm listing here also the main problems afflicting this project: include all the utilities you need to edit the EMFs or to print directly in.The sources and make your own modifications (see the license) įor more info about the difference between raster and vectorĪnd use (and also to uninstall actually!) It's Open Source: free as in freedom! You can explore Some nice things about this virtual printer:

Vector images from any Windows application which supports printing.Īdditionally, the printer also supports more than 100 raster formats (PNG, JPG, TIFF, BMP, etc) ( Windows Meta File - the old version of EMF) For Windows 2000 and Windows XP, which allows you to create
