I work with black and white line drawings that are created with
programs such as CorelDRAW and stored in WMF format. When I place the
WMF files into a document, the document prints out correctly and the
drawings look great. However, if I use RoboHelp to place the WMF
files into a help project, I have problems. When the help file is
viewed, the lines in the drawings are broken or missing and any text
in the drawing is unreadable.

Try using the clipboard and pasting the image as a bitmap into your
help file or export it as a .BMP.
