Hi Bing,

maybe the wmfs are missing the wmf header, which can be chopped off, when the 
wmf is embedded [2]
- so if the size is 22 bytes to big, this would be a good indication.

I've started to implement wmf parsing a while ago and maybe you can recreate 
the header with the
WmfPlaceableHeader class [1].

Hi,

New to the list but I have pressing need to extract all the embedded
equation images from an Word 97 .doc file (not .docx).

I know all those images are in WMF format. After I dumped the picture
content (from the Picture.getContent()) to a file, I found that the file
was not entirely a valid WMF or at least they did not have the correct size
information.

I'd appreciate it so much if someone can get me started on the right track.

Thanks!

Bing
