Hi everyone,

I am trying to make some publication-quality plots for use in Microsoft
Word, but I am having trouble creating high-quality plots that are supported
by Microsoft Word.

If I use the R plot function to create the figure, the lines are jagged, and
the picture is not of high quality (same with JPEG(), TIFF(), and PNG()
functions).  I have tried using the Cairo package, but it distorts my dashed
lines, and the win.metafile results in a picture of terrible quality.  The
only way I have succeeded in getting a high quality picture in a file is by
using the pdf() function to save the plot as a pdf file, but all my attempts
to convert the image in the pdf file to a TIFF or other file type accepted
by Word result in considerably degraded quality.  Do you have any
suggestions for creating publication-quality plots in R that can be placed
in Word documents?  What packages, functions (along with options), and/or
conversions would you use?  Thanks so much for your help!
