Use

1. If a drawing application supports only an original format image,
however it can copy images on the clipboard as the enhanced metafile
format, this application can successfully convert metafile images to
all general format images. For example, Molip Draw (http://www.molips.
com/) images can be converted to Jpg images.
2. If a paint application don't support metafile image, it is possible
to paste image as bmp format using this application.
