	Probably true.  Plotutils looks like an interesting library 
for doing vector-based drawing, and it's output support is definitely 
a plus.  It might be interesting to combine it with ps2edit 
(<http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Network/1958/pstoedit/>) for 
producing even more formats!
	The other option might be to simply go direct from WMF->SVG 
using WMF2SVG (<http://www.blackdirt.com/graphics/svg/>).  It looks a 
bit rough, but might be a good starting point.
