Package: libwmf-bin
Version: 0.2.8.4-6.1+b1
Severity: grave
File: /usr/bin/wmf2svg


This is odd. I could not find any bug report for this so I am reporting it.

I cannot convert a wmf file, it keeps on failing with:

$ wmf2svg -o bla.svg /tmp/test.wmf
ERROR: font.c (1334): wmf_ipa_font_map: failed to load *any* font!

The workaround is simply:

$ wmf2svg --wmf-fontdir=/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts -o bla.svg /tmp/test.wmf

It would be nice it this was handled gracefully and/or documented.

Thanks much
Ps: as a side note it generates & characters instead of & which make the 
SVG output invalid...
