Hello, I would avoid the use of vector files for presentation, as Powerpoint will display a rasterized version off the vectorized image (if I am not mistaken). I always directly use raster files, as png.
For eps, I use the following command in R. > postscript(file='file.eps', onefile=FALSE, horizontal=FALSE, paper='special',...) Regards, Pascal 2013/7/24 Richard M.
