How well do .wmf work in Corel? I found two similar clipart packages, but the one with eps is about 5 times more and comes with a lot fewer images.

.wmf type files have been NO problems to use. I sometimes have to close paths to make "changes", but have been using them from an IMSI clipart package way back to CorelDraw 8.

Thanks. This just saved me a bundle.

They can be ungrouped and changed also. Easy to take out backgrounds and change colors.

When working with complicated jobs, (lots of unknown vector clipart, a dozen different fonts etc..) and the customer insists on doing their own artwork even though they have no idea what "convert all text to curves" actually means, I tell them to 'export' the file to a .wmf file and then send me the .wmf file. When they do this, all the text and other items get converted to curves automatically. This saves me a bunch of time, every time.. It's one sure way of making sure everything (with the exception of bit maps of course) get converted to curves.
