I need help with using graphics in Word 2007 that will later be converted into a pdf document. I have tried several formats and found that I get the best quality of graphics using .wmf, .eps format, but when I convert it to .pdf I get a bunch of lines across the figures. I also tried .tiff and .png but they give me much lower quality. The best quality that converts to pdf appears to be .eps. However, I have now come across a problem with my figure legends. For some reason the legend is visible in R but not in Word. Does anyone know why a legend in .eps format won't work in Word, or how I can get it to work? I have made an example of the legend below that you should be able to save as .eps and paste into Word as an example. I would appreciate any help you can offer on getting the legend in .eps format to work, or on other formats that may be better for Word and pdf files.
