Graphics on MacOSX
This is a big issue for me, causing many days of angst. I finally stumbled on the following solution. I create a device save an image with postscript(). I then open it in Adobe Acrobat, select the area I want, enlarge to at least 400%, then copy, then paste into PowerPoint or Word. Alternatively, you can simply save a graphics image through the gui and it saves it as pdf. Then go through the steps of selecting, enlarging and copying in Acrobat. I am guessing real graphics programs would work as well (Photoshop or Illustrator), but I don't have those. Hank Stevens

Ist there a possibility on MacOSX to import Graphics into MSOffice Applications and resize them there without decreased quality? When I import via copy&paste I get low quality bitmaps and via import pictures (pdf) it is all the same. In the Windows versions of R there is the convienient way to use metafile format which can easily be resized in ppt and word. What is the equivalent way on MacOSX? Thanks, Dirk.
