Hi there!

I'm afraid the main problem with RTF image import lies in the fact that Word normally stores images as Windows metafiles; even plain raster images are formally wrapped into metafile streams. Therefore I'm afraid that to implement RTF image import under Linux, a necessary precondition would be to write a metafile interpreter in U++; while I believe this to be an important step extending the range of U++ usability, it's not a thing I can promise to write tomorrow.

Hi Thomas,

I've looked at WMF specs, they seems to me almost trivial.
What would be the needed steps to have WMF handled by UPP rtf ?
I mean... the right place where to put the WMF parser.

Ciao
