Note: With some programs (e.g. Microsoft Word 6 and 7) no
*.emf format import is possible. In this case, export and import the
curve in the *.wmf or *.bmp format.
For exporting curves to graphic files it is recommended to use
the *.wmf or *.emf format for better resolution and the possibility to
rescale the graphic.
