How can I convert one WMF file to PNG/BMP/JPG format with custom output resolution?

Example: Take WMF file and outputs PNG file with 2000x2000 px.

Thanks in advance.

You can use the excelent Batik ( http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/ ) lib to achieve this. But you will need to follow this steps:

  1. Convert the WMF file to SVG using the WMFTranscoder
  2. Convert the SVG to JGP using the JPGTranscoder

WMF >> SVG >> JPG
