You will need to create a Device Context for an Enhanced Meta-File, then you can draw on the MetaFile Device Context. You will want to use a device context that is compatible to what you want to draw from, such as a Window DC from a call to GetDC or BeginPaint.

hdcMeta = ::CreateEnhMetaFile(hdc, _T("C:\\output.emf"), &rect, pDescription);
