Hi all, I'm trying to write up some recommendations for what graphics formats are most useful for inclusion into ms office and openoffice. There have been a few discussions on the list in the past, but I haven't seen a summary. These are the options I've seen so far, along with there costs and benefits:
* high-resolution (600-dpi) png output (or tiff or jpg or other raster format). The main disadvantage is that it's a raster format, so you need to know the eventual output size. * windows metafile: works well in MS office, but does not support transparency. Can only be produced on windows, and openoffice support isn't great * encapsulated postscript: supported by both MS office and open office, but won't display a preview image unless you add one with an external program. Prints fine. * svg: R output devices still experimental and open office import still experimental. No support in ms office. Have I missed anything? Is the information correct?
