I've written a windows graphics program that constructs enhanced windows meta files. The file has a header containing palette information, dimensions, and a few other things. The rest of the file is GDI (graphics device interface) commands for drawing primitives such as lines, arcs, fills, text, etc. The earlier win3.1 meta format is .wmf, and the later winnt/win2k format is .emf (enhanced meta files). A lot is explained in this book: http://www.charlespetzold.com/pw5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
