So, I'm pretty sure I have the latest version.I was glad to see so many formats available under the "Save As" dialogue.But the one I need the most (WMF), doesn't do the job. It just freezes the application. Even simple shapes like a square or a circle do not export to WMF.The Python window opens and then the application just freezes.I am using Inkscape in the Win XP (Home) (SP3) environment.What am I missing? Do I need to download some Runtime environments?

I just did a square shape and successfully saved as WMF. I'm on Windows 7 (64-bit). I also saw the python.exe window, and there was a significant pause at that point. But after a couple of moments, it closed, and I had the test.wmf file on my screen.No regarding the runtime program. If you didn't have it already, the Inkscape installer would have noticed, and prompted (if not automatically) download/install.Unfortunately, I don't know what to suggest. Maybe double-check that you downloaded the proper setup/installer file, and maybe even download a fresh(er) copy and reinstall (making sure to uninstall first).Oh, here's one thing you can do before reinstalling. Try saving your file first as SVG. Then Save As WMF. For some reason, sometimes, that has helped others with similar problems. Or you could try File menu > Export Bitmap. This will save a PNG version of your file to the location you choose. You c

Result: Phyton.exe crashes (and Inkscape displays: UniConvertor failed: ) I use 0.48 Win7 x64. This bug could be related to Bug #474963, but I'm not sure if they are identical. The file was created using copy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/656938 and paste from another drawing program, but I deleted most of the stuff. Export to EMF works fine.

♦ ♦ | Report Content as Inappropriate ♦ ♦ Export as .WMF gives Errors, http://inkscape.13.x6.nabble.com/Export-as-WMF-gives-Errors-What-to-do-td2837747.html What to do? I just downloaded and installed Inkscape a few days ago, and my main reason was to export to wmf to import into my Machine Embroidery programs. However, when I save a line art as .wmf, Python stops working and gives me a unicode error. Specifics below: ----------------------------------------python.exe has stopped workingA inkscape wmf problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. After I click the Close program button I get an Inkscape error box that says:Inkscape has received additional data from the script executed. The script did not return an error, but this inkscape wmf export may indicate the results will not be as expected. UniConvertor failed: rest of box is blank---------------------------------------------I did a little research (i'm not a programmer just an end user), and it seems the bug has been confirmed but I can't really find what has been done about it, or what I'm supposed to do now. Can anyone help?
