Subject: How to copy line drawings in R MAC
In-Reply-To: <264855a00903130928s500e000pbb9fc447bed95880@mail.gmail.com>

You can "print" the Quartz window to the Preview program using the  
Preview button in the print dialog. Choosing File/ "Save As.."  will  
let you access 12 format options by clicking the Format button/ 
parameter.
