Hello, some clarification. The previous _Windows_ version of rtf2latex2e could only convert wmf, not emf graphics. As the LyX metafile2eps converter converts both, I think it's worth to switch to the new _Windows_ version.
For the _Unix_ version we haven't yet found a better converter as in rtf2latex2e version 2-0-1. We are experimenting with jodconverter which in turn uses parts of OpenOffice for the conversion. It works with some versions of OpenOffice / LibreOffice, with others it doesn't. Unless we find a more reliable free metafile2eps/pdf converter for Unix, we cannot release the current rtf2latex2e version for Unix.
