I think you want the wmf files. See this post. http://forums.surecutsalot.com/viewtopi ... 31&p=18537

I have a Mac so I use EPS. They open and are converted automatically to PDFs when I double click them. All I have to do then is open the PDF in Inkscape and save as an SVG.
These WMF files are vectors, and I think I heard someone before say that the PC version of Inkscape could open WMFs but I am not sure about that. If all else fails you could import the jpg version into Inkscape and path>trace bitmap.
What is the other format, AI? If so, that is vector and if it is the right version, Inkscape will read that.

Need some Windows folks to give a more definitive answer before you eat up your 3 downloads per week, huh?
