Online WMF to SVG Vector Converter

Convert legacy 16-bit Windows Metafile (.wmf) drawings into modern Scalable Vector Graphics (.svg). WMF was Microsoft's original vector metafile format in Windows 3.0 and 95, storing GDI function calls for polygons, arcs, polylines, fills, and text. Converting WMF to SVG preserves those vector paths so the illustration can be scaled infinitely in web browsers or edited in Inkscape, Illustrator, and Figma.

How WMF to SVG Conversion Works

Our converter parses the 16-bit GDI metafile records (including Aldus Placeable WMF bounding-box headers) and maps each vector drawing primitive into standard SVG path and shape elements. After conversion, you can clean up and shrink the generated XML using our SVG optimizer.

How to Convert WMF to SVG

  1. Select your .wmf file from your device or paste a direct URL.
  2. Click "Convert to SVG!" to convert the GDI vector records to SVG markup.
  3. Download the SVG, or convert it to a bitmap using WMF to PNG.
