Metafile Utilities software

Download the C source code for LISTWMF.EXE (V1.10 8K) - the single LISTWMF.C file demonstrates how to open and parse WMF (and CLP) files optionally with placeable metafile headers. The zip file also includes a project and solution file for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (v7.0), but the .C file should compile fine with most versions of Visual Studio.
Download the C++ source code for LISTEMF.EXE (V1.21 11K) - the single LISTEMF.CPP file demonstrates how to open and parse EMF files. The zip file also includes a project and solution file for Microsoft Visual Studio .NET (v7.0), but the .CPP file should compile fine with most versions of Visual Studio.

These Companion Software utilities are 32-bit Microsoft Windows console applications (i.e. they can be run at the DOS (command) prompt) that display a "clear text" list of the records in a metafile. This is useful when you want to see what commands are used in a file or if you want to do a "conceptual compare" of two metafiles.
