I just use the 'convert' utility whenever I need to convert and image. 
It is a command line tool part of the ImageMagick package.

I don't though have a .wmf file to hand, so I don't know if it knows 
about this particular format. It knows about many others.

If it works, it would be just

  > convert XXX.wmf XXX.jpg

or whatever file format you want. See

for (extensive) information.
