What is an emz file?

An EMZ file is a compressed file format used by Microsoft Office for storing Enhanced Metafile (EMF) images. EMF files are typically used for vector graphics and can be edited without loss of quality. EMZ files are created by compressing EMF files using the GZIP algorithm, which reduces the file size for easier storage and transmission.

EMZ files are commonly used in applications like Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint to insert vector graphics into documents or presentations. They can be opened and viewed using these Microsoft Office programs or other image viewing software that supports the EMZ format.

To create an EMZ file, simply compress an EMF file using a file compression tool like WinZip or 7-Zip. The resulting EMZ file will have a smaller size than the original EMF file, making it easier to share and store.
