The older 16-bit predecessor to EMF, found in legacy Windows applications and clip art. Modern software is dropping support, so conversion is often required.
WMF to SVG Converter
Convert WMF files to SVG free in your browser — no signup, no install, and the file is never uploaded to a server. SVG opens almost anywhere, so the result works where WMF did not.
What changes in this conversion
- SVG opens almost everywhere, so the converted file will work on devices and programs that refused the original WMF.
How to use
-
Add your WMF file
Drag the WMF file onto the drop area above, or click it to pick a file from your device. You can add several files at once.
-
Confirm SVG as the output
SVG is already selected as the output format on this page. You can set the output width and height. Quality stays untouched because this format is lossless.
-
Run the conversion
Press the convert button. A single image is usually done before you finish reading this sentence.
-
Download the SVG file
When it finishes, download the SVG file. Converting multiple files gives you the option to download them together as a ZIP.
About these formats
A vector format that describes artwork as mathematical shapes rather than pixels. It stays sharp at any zoom level, and because the file is text you can edit it in code.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting WMF to SVG really free?
Yes. WMF to SVG conversion is completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no daily limit on the free plan for ordinary use.
Are my WMF files uploaded to a server?
No. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser using WebAssembly, so the WMF file never leaves your device. That is also why it works without an internet connection once the page has loaded.
Does the SVG file get bigger than the WMF?
It can go either way. Both formats are lossless, so nothing is thrown away — the size difference comes from how each one packs the same data.
Is there a file size limit for WMF to SVG conversion?
The free plan handles files up to 200MB. Because processing happens on your own device, very large files depend on your computer's memory rather than a server quota.
