Colleagues

I frequently insert PDF graphics created with R into Word (Office  
2004 for Mac) documents.  The  documents are created on either a  
Linux machine (RedHat 9) or a Mac (Tiger).  I am using R 2.2.0.

These pdf graphics often lose a great deal of resolution after  
insertion into Word compared to their high quality when printed as  
PDF documents.  I recently learned that converting the PDF documents  
to TIFF format (this is easily accomplished in Apple's Preview  
application) yields documents that can be inserted into Word with no  
loss of resolution.

Is there any means to create TIFF documents (or some other format  
[excluding EPS] that will not lose resolution when inserted into  
Word) directly in R (i.e., so as to avoid the conversion outside of R)?
