Hey All

I am trying to export an AutoCAD drawing to wmf format; however, when
I insert exported file into a word (using Insert->Picture->From File
in MS Word), I cannot see any drawing. Any idea as to what might have
been happening here.

Thanks in advance

Well I'm using Acad 2008 and Word 2007. I had No problems. What are
you using?

A couple of thoughts come to mind... when I selected my WMF objects, the
actual WMF file contains a lot of blank space. So when you inserted
your WMF file into Word, you may be seeing the blank space areas. Try
re-sizing the image in Word... I doubt that is the issue though -
unless your WMF file image is very Small.

Can you open your WMF file in a Picture Viewer and See your objects?

What are your WMF image object colours?

Not much else that I can think of...
