Can you recognize whether the 17 .emf files contain the information in vector
format or in pixel format? I ask as we use the converted xhtml file and the
converted images also for pdf generation via princexml.
Do you have a very rough idea when .emf files should be converted by w2x ? Will
you be able to take into account the “bounding box”? It looks like the .emf
files have white space that is not visible in the word file.

Yes, that's right.
