Hi I produce graphics with R under linux, but my collaborators often use windows and cannot import eps pics e.g. in msword
Are they sure? One can import eps images into Word, but you need to print them on a postscript printer.
what is the standard way to get e.g. bmp's with the same quality as eps. going the way: creating eps, convert eps2bmp using 'convert' doesn't yield good enough bmp's
The bitmap() device might do better, although both are really using gs. I would use png() and convert to bmp with ImageMagick's convert or otherwise.
