R can produce at least PostScript, PDF, png, jpeg/jpg

see:

	help(postscript)
	help(pdf)
	help(png)
	help(jpeg)

I don't use word, for me the PostScript format (more precisely Encapsulated
PostScript/.eps) is the best/more easy/powerful format if you don't have thousands of
points or lines :-)

por instance, to print a simple plot:

postscript(file="somefile.eps");

plot(whatever);

dev.off(); <<---- Important

other formats are similar
