Getting eps into Word documents.
as far as I know (and I am not a specialist), there is no way of importing EPS in word, nor in openoffice, if you want to be able to "see" the graphics in the word processor and not only a placeholder. So either a) use formats such as bmp, png, or b) under windows: convert eps to e.g. wmf using a tool, such as corel draw, or import the eps into powerpoint, then save it as wmf c) try to import the eps in inkscape (I think this opensource tool is available also for windows), but I have never tried this .. I have to admit, that under linux I have found no way so far, to import an eps graphics into a word document (neither ooo writer, nor msword, running with wine). Christoph

A student in one of my courses has asked me about getting R graphics output (under Linux) into a Word document. I.e. she wants to do her R thing under Linux, but then do her word processing using Word. Scanning around the r-help archives I encountered an inquiry about this topic --- eps into Word documents --- from Paul Johnson but found no replies to it. I tried contacting him but the email address in the archives appeared not to be valid. Does anyone know a satisfactory solution to the problem of including a graphic which exists in the form of a *.eps (encapsulated postscript) file into a Word document. If so, would you be willing to share it with me and my student? If so, please be gentle in your explanation. I am not myself (repeat ***NOT***) a user of Word! Thanks. cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at math.unb.ca
R can also create more generic image formats such as png, i just use these when I'm forced to insert graphics for presentations ?png
