Code to *read* them is more widely available than to *write* them. Can sodipodi output wmf/emf? Note that libEMF's help page says It is also possible now to generate EMF files from PSTOEDIT on POSIX systems. Therefore, if your graphics code only outputs PostScript, you can now easily convert it to EMF. but that is only true on Windows (unfortunately). -- Brian D.
