.wmf or windows metafile is a vector format not a raster format like .jpg, .tif, .bmp etc.... which is why the line work is much crisper. I think photoshop is strictly for dealing in the raster world. But with a program like Illustrator you should be able to combine layers.

Our communications guy likes the resolution and quality of them better than .jps, etc.. Here's the problem: I saved about 24 maps. They ranged from 500 to 1.25 mb. I went back and added the house of representative layer to all of the maps (on copies) and saved as .wmfs. They have jumped way up in size (ex: from 1.08mb to 6.00mb). Communications guy needs them smaller. The only thing that is different is that added layer. How can I make them smaller mbs? Does saving them to .wmf keep them as layers somehow? Would they be able to be made into a single layer in Photoshop? Thanks in advance for your help!
