Convert EPUB file to WMF via C#
Export EPUB to WMF within .NET applications without using Adobe® Acrobat Reader or any other third party applications
Aspose.Total for .NET is a comprehensive suite of APIs that enables developers to easily export EPUB to WMF image within any .NET applications. This suite of APIs provides a wide range of features and functionalities that can be used to create, manipulate, and convert various file formats.
The process of exporting EPUB to WMF image involves two simple steps. First, you need to use Aspose.PDF for .NET to export EPUB to JPEG. This API provides a wide range of features and functionalities that can be used to create, manipulate, and convert various file formats. It also provides a powerful set of tools that can be used to convert EPUB to JPEG.
Once you have exported EPUB to JPEG, you can then use Aspose.Imaging for .NET Image Processing API to convert JPEG to WMF. This API provides a wide range of features and functionalities that can be used to create, manipulate, and convert various image formats. It also provides a powerful set of tools that can be used to convert JPEG to WMF.

Convert EPUB file to WMF via .NET
- Open EPUB file using Document class
- Initialize JpegDevice class object and render EPUB to JPEG by using Process method
- Load JPEG file by using Image class
- Save the document to WMF format using Save method
Get Started with .NET File Automation APIs
Install from command line as nuget install Aspose.Total or install directly from Package Manager Console of Visual Studio.
Alternatively, get the offline MSI installer or DLLs in a ZIP file from downloads .
Convert EPUB File to WMF in a Single File via C#
Using the API, you can also convert EPUB file to WMF to a single image file. In order to convert all pages, you can first render your EPUB document to one TIFF file and after that you can export TIFF file to WMF. You can open the input file using Document class and create Resolution, TiffSettings, & TIFF device objects. You can get a single TIFF image using Process method of TiffDevice class. Finally, you can load TIFF file using Image class and save it to WMF format using Save method.
Convert EPUB to WMF With Watermark via C#
Using the API, you can also convert EPUB file to WMF with watermark in your WMF document. In order to add a watermark, you can first render your EPUB document to JPEG and add a watermark in it. To demonstrate the operation, you can load your converted JPEG image, add transformations using an object of Matrix class and draw a string as the watermark on the image surface using the Graphics class’ DrawString method. After adding the watermark in it, you can save the JPEG as WMF format. Below is a code example that demonstrates how to add a diagonal watermark to your document.
Convert & Rotate EPUB File to WMF via C#
Using the API, you can also rotate the output WMF image as per your needs. The Image.RotateFlip method can be used to rotate the image by 90/180/270-degrees and flip the image horizontally or vertically. You can specify the type of rotation and flip to apply to the image. In order to rotate and flip the image you can load the converted JPEG image using the factory method exposed by Image class and call the Image.RotateFlip method while specifying the appropriate RotateFlipType .

What is EPUB File Format?
An EPUB file, also known as an Open eBook File, is a standardized format developed by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF). It is based on XML (eXtensible Markup Language) and XHTML (eXtensible Hypertext Markup Language). EPUB files are designed for reading digital books and publications on various electronic devices such as e-readers, tablets, and smartphones.
EPUB files consist of three main components. The first component is the spine, which contains the main text of the book and defines the order in which the pages should be read. It provides the structural framework for the content.
The second component is the manifest, which serves as a catalog of all the files that make up the EPUB book. This includes the spine, cover image, table of contents, and any additional content. The manifest ensures that all the necessary files are properly linked and organized within the EPUB package.
The third component is the container, which stores the EPUB files in a compressed format. The container helps reduce file size and enables efficient distribution and storage of EPUB books.
EPUB files can be created using various software programs such as Adobe InDesign, Sigil, and Calibre. These tools provide authors and publishers with the ability to create, edit, and format EPUB books according to the specifications set by the IDPF. With EPUB being an open and widely adopted standard, readers can enjoy a seamless reading experience across different devices and platforms.
What is WMF File Format?
Windows Metafile (WMF) is a graphics file format commonly used on Microsoft Windows systems. It is typically created by vector graphic editors such as Adobe Illustrator or Microsoft Office Visio. WMF files are designed to be displayed on screens and printed on printers. The format is based on the Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) and utilizes a device-independent coordinate system.
WMF files can contain both vector graphics and bitmap images. Vector graphics are defined using mathematical formulas that represent lines, curves, and shapes, allowing for scalability without loss of quality. Bitmap images, on the other hand, consist of pixels arranged in a grid and are suitable for representing complex visual details.
Various programs, including Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, and Adobe Photoshop, can open and work with WMF files. These programs provide features for editing, resizing, and manipulating the graphics within the WMF files.
It’s important to note that WMF is an older file format, and its usage has decreased over time in favor of more modern formats such as SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) and PNG (Portable Network Graphics). However, WMF files are still supported by many applications and can be converted to other formats if needed.
