The WMF files produced by Corel Draw X6 16.4.1.1281 are no longer valid.
WMF File format has always worked until this point.
The only suggestion for anyone affected that I can see is to downgrade.
Has anyone checked WMF file format output is functional (and tried to load resulting WMF file into something else that reads WMF) in the new Corel Draw X7?

Hi Warren, I also noticed a change in X6 16.4.1.1281
I would not recommend using the "export to Office" because it now uses a different file format extension .EMF (previously it used .WMF)
However you can still save to the .WMF file format I just did and inserted the file in Word without any problem.
The best way to follow this up is if you can post a CDR file that you think does not properly export to WMF. Then others can check it and either agree there's a problem or maybe find out why it seems to be working differently.
Both WMF and EMF files export properly here from the same X6 release, made from benign to reasonably complex files.
As Harry mentioned, a sample that does not export as expected would be good to post.
Hi,
I recently updated to X7. Exporting WMF from CorelDrawX7 is not proper when compared to previous version X5. Unwanted Crosslines are appearing in-between the image. WMF is upper screenshot actual output should be as below screenshot form the attachment
Exporting to EMF is proper. But the file size extremely larger when it comes to fill and larger files in corel file.
Do you have a solution?
Thanks
