Irfanview (freeware) converts most photo formats.

I use ThumbsPlus. If a wmf has a bitmap in it, it offers an "extract bitmap"
tool on the menus. I don't remember if it is smart enough to do a "save as"
to a bitmap format or not.

I mention this not as "your perfect answer" but rather as data which may be
helpful as you look for your answer.

free XnView too: http://www.xnview.com/

but raster data will, of course, remain raster data...

.... if vectors are prefered, a vectorization can be tried with e.g.
free WinTopo light: http://www.wintopo.com/
