Use another device. I personally use *.eps which can be obtained by:

postscript("myplot.eps",width=8,height=8,paper="special",horizontal=F)
plot(...)
dev.off()

note that width and height are different here to the png device where
the size is in points.

You can use this in word 200x but note that the plot will look ugly on
the screen. It will look great when you print it with a postscript
printer or when you produce a pdf out of that word file.

Look also here on how you could produce wmf/emf files:
