I use savePlot() with type="emf" (remember to include the right file
extension - although savePlot will use the type as default extension, it
will only do so if there are no '.'s in the filename, so filenames like
'../plots/aplot' won't get the extension automatically. Really should
have made that check an extension check!).
.emf format is a native format for windows vector graphics on a windows
system, so Word imports .emf files directly.
I would not use the older .wmf format, though; scaling seems to have
gone badly awry for .wmf from R. No idea why as I assume R uses native
windows calls to generate them.
Like others, I would not recommend jpg, png or tiff for import into
word-processing softeare; you either get oversized files or poor
reproduction and scaling.
