Create SVG files with our easy-to-use and free tool. Our tool lets you upload a EMF (Windows Enhanced Metafile) file and convert this file to a SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file that you can then download and edit or use within your applications.
To get started, click the Upload button above and select the EMF file you wish to convert. You may select up to 200 files at a time, and our EMF to SVG tool will batch convert them in a single operation.

The EMF file format is the successor to the legacy WMF image format, capable of storing both two-dimensional raster and vector graphics. The WMF format was introduced by Microsoft in 1992 as part of the Windows 3 SDK and has evolved over time with new features until being replaced by the EMF format.
EMF files contain 32-bit data and are similar in nature to SVG files in that they can store both raster and vector image data. The format is used within versions of Microsoft Office and can be opened with a limited number of graphics applications.

Introduced by the W3C organization in 2001, the SVG file format grew to become the standard web file format for vector-based 2D images and is supported by the majority of modern web browsers. SVG files are XML-based text files containing 2D vector elements such as paths, simple shapes, colors, and more.
The SVG format itself, while primarily a vector format, can include raster images as well as text. Due to their vector-based format, SVG files lend themselves very well to website company logos and icons. A compressed format of SVG also exists, which uses the extension SVGZ and employs the GZIP compression algorithm.
Yes! Our EMF tool supports full batch conversions. You can upload up to 200 EMF files at a time. Our tool will convert them all as quickly as possible. Once completed, you can either download the SVG files individually or download them all in a single ZIP file.
First click the "Upload..." button, and select your EMF file to upload. You can also drag and drop your file onto the tool. Once your file is selected, you can set any configuration options. When the EMF to SVG conversion has completed, you can download your SVG file straight away.
We aim to process all EMF to SVG conversions as quickly as possible, this usually takes around 5 seconds but can be more for larger more complex files so please be patient.
We aim to create the most accurate conversions with our tools. Our tools are under constant development with new features and improvements being added every week.
Yes, of course! We do not store the EMF file you submit to us. The resulting SVG file, once created, is stored for 4 hours after upload; after this time it is deleted, and the short-term download link will stop working. You can create a long-term download Url with most tools that will ensure the file is retained for 24 hours, allowing you to download the file when convenient. Our tools also come with a Delete button, allowing you to delete the file immediately.
No. All our conversion tools process your EMF file on our dedicated conversion servers, meaning you can use our tools on low-spec computers, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices and receive your converted SVG file quickly.
Yes! Our EMF to SVG tool will run on any system with a modern web browser. No specialist software is needed to run any of our conversion tools.
Yes. Although you can use an Ad Blocker, if you like our EMF conversion tool please consider white-listing our website. When an Ad Blocker is enabled there are some conversion limits and some settings may not be available when using our tools. Processing/conversion and download times will also be longer.
Yes. When you have converted your EMF to SVG, there is a "Feedback" option that you can use to let us know of any issues you encountered when converting your file.
