2 In the Import WMF dialog box, select the WMF file you want to open.
Click Open.
3 Specify an insertion point for the WMF file.
4 To specify the scaling, use one of the following methods:
■ To specify an imaginary box whose dimensions correspond to the
scale factor, enter c (Corner) at the Command prompt. Specify the
opposite corner above and to the right of the insertion point to avoid
inserting a mirror image.
■ To specify 3D scale factors, enter xyz.
■ To set the X and Y scale settings, enter a scale at the Command prompt.
You can set different horizontal and vertical scales. Enter 1 to retain
the current scale. Enter a higher number to enlarge the metafile image.
(Enter 2 to double the size of the image.) Enter a positive number less
than 1 to shrink the image. (Enter .5 to halve the size of the image.)
Note that using this option makes it very difficult to import the WMF
file at a specific scale or size.
5 Specify the rotation angle.
