Hi, On windows, you can use a COM client (with packages like rcom or RDCOMClient) to control powerpoint from R and insert the generated image using powerpoint's object model. You can either use the clipboard or an intermediate image file saved to disk.
Not hard to do, but this seems to be already implemented in package RPPT recently released to CRAN, so have a look at it: http://stat.ethz.ch/CRAN/web/packages/R2PPT/index.html About the image format, using windows metafiles allows you to double-click the image in powerpoint, "ungroup", and then edit each of its components (text, lines, etc.) Regards, Enrique ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 7 Jul 2009 13:38:48 -0700 (PDT) From: Thomas <aikto...@yahoo.com> Subject: [R] Dump plots to powerpoint?
