I am wondering if anyone has experience importing Windows generated emf files into AI and had issues. I have a potential project with a client and they say I need Windows AI to process the files but AI on Mac allows for opening and saving of emf format.

EMF is a meta file format. It relies on system routines to calculate part of the file contents. So you will need Windows.

Hello, I'm on an Apple Mac running CC.
I'm trying to convert A .EMF FILE from Illustrator to Powerpoint then converting to a Drawing Object.

Is it possible to ungroup and then colour the icons? 

I HAVE TRIED IMPORTING THE .EMF BUT THE OPTION TO UNGROUP DOES NOT APPEAR AS A PREFERNCE?
Thanks,
