+libwmf is a library for UNIX-like machines that can convert wmf
+(Windows Meta Files) files into other formats. Currently it supports
+a gd binding to convert to png, and an X one to draw direct to an X
+window or pixmap. It also comes with a program to display wmfs: xwmf.
+
+Without a TrueType font server and the standard MS Windows fonts, the X
+binding might render text in a different font than would appear under
+MS Windows natively (this is a runtime issue for the xwmf program).
