Document File Formats: Windows Enhanced Meta File (EMF)

Windows Enhanced Meta File (EMF). EMF is a standard format in Microsoft Windows. EMF is a collection of structures that store a picture in a device-independent format. Device independence is the one feature that sets metafiles apart from raster images. Unlike a raster image, a metafile guarantees device independence. The EMF can contain various objects such as Text, Lines and raster images. EMF also contains Dots/Inch (DPI) information that is used to calculate the real size of the picture stored inside.
