dealing with emf/wmf files

I'd like to put some emf/wmf pictures into a pdf file
using 'reportlab', but the Python Imaging Library
cannot recognize emf files. The wmf files are said to
be 'identified only'.

Therefore, the following code does not work:

from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas
from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import letter
width, height = letter # (595.27,841.89)
def hello(c):
    c.drawImage(r'D:\01.wmf',1,1,height,width)

c = canvas.Canvas('hello.pdf',
pagesize=(height,width))
hello(c)
c.showPage()
c.save()

I do not want to convert the pictures into other
formats, e.g. jpg which will lower the quality. 

Is there any way to get around with this problem?

Thanks!
