[R] insert eps into microsft word

Have you tried win.metafile (I'm assuming you are using Windows)?
E.g.

win.metafile(file = "c:/test.wmf")
plot(rnorm(100))
dev.off()

WMF is a vectorised format (unlike jpeg or bmp) so should produce nice
scalable graphs.

Subject: [R] insert eps into microsft word


it seems that word can not read encapsupalted postscripts generated by R
I used this command

postscript("output.eps",horizontal=F,onefile=TRUE)
since onefile=TRUE produces an encapsualted postscript

actually what I'm trying to do is to insert the postsript file into a
word document since other formats like jpeg and bmp do not reproduce the
same quality like postscript formats


any suggestions are very much appreciated
Karim
