What is a WMF file?
WMF (Windows Metafile) is a legacy Windows vector format from the 1990s. It was commonly used for clip art in older Microsoft Office versions and Windows applications.
Should I convert to SVG instead?
If you need to maintain vector scalability, use WMF to SVG instead. PNG is better when you need a fixed-resolution image for web or print.
