31.2.4 Exporting images and creating files from OLE objects

Mif2Go does not support OLE or OLE2; these are proprietary, undocumented Microsoft Structured Storage formats. An OLE object is like a binary mini-file system. The “files” in an OLE object contain information needed for editing by the application that originally created the object. The application is not required for viewing in FrameMaker or printing, because at least one of the “files” is a WMF image that can be used for display (but only on a Windows system).

In this section:

§31.2.4.1 Extracting the WMF preview image from an OLE object

§31.2.4.2 Extracting and exporting all WMF images from an OLE object

§31.2.4.3 Extracting OLE images with FrameMaker export filters

§31.2.4.4 Retrieving OLE objects for use in the original application
