In my statistics courses, graphs were kind of essential. While I agree with the 
sentiments
of Bill's comment, statistics done with no graphs is generally a vegetarian 
steak dinner.

The real messages are:
 - allow as much flexibility of tools to create material as possible
 - specify a format that is adequate and also compatible with the first 
requirement
 - this format should be relatively resistant to being messed up by the 
operating environment/

For me, pdf did the trick, but is isn't perfect. As noted in another comment in 
this
thread, I also have found that LibreOffice works fine if you begin with a .doc 
created in
Word. Bit of a nuisance, and I've no idea why this should be.
