The vmf file extension is associated with Corel Ventura Publisher, a desktop publishing application for Microsoft Windows developed by Corel.
A vmf file contains font characteristics used by Ventura when working with fonts in its publishing environment. It is a support file for the application, not a general-purpose font file.
Corel Ventura is an obsolete product, and its latest version was released in 2002. VMF files are therefore legacy files normally encountered with older Ventura installations or publications.
Use a compatible installation of Corel Ventura Publisher on Microsoft Windows. The application normally reads this support file as needed, so it may not be intended for independent viewing.
Modern font-management or publishing applications generally do not open this Corel Ventura file directly.
A VMF font characteristics file has no practical standalone conversion to a modern font format. It is an auxiliary file used by Ventura rather than a font that can be converted independently.
To move content from an old Ventura publication, open the publication in Corel Ventura on Microsoft Windows and use the application's available export or printing options. This converts the publication, not the VMF file itself.

File extension vmf is associated with the Valve Hammer Editor (WorldCraft) that saves a level file in the .vmf format by default. Before this, it saved a level file in the binary, proprietary .rmf or text-based, human-readable .map format.
VMF format (Valve Map Format) is a simple file that contains all the information about a level in a format vaguely similar to an XML file. It originated because of Half-Life's reliance on the Quake engine, and has remained as a result. Valve includes compiling tools with the Source SDK - vbsp, vvis, and vrad.
Use Valve Hammer Editor to open .vmf map source files.
Probably cannot be converted to other formats.
