If on Linux, install (if you have not already) ImageMagick. This can convert between all sorts of formats including (if your version supports it which mine doesn't) Windows Metafile. If it doesn't, you have options like GIF or JPEG which Windows can import. Admittedly they're basically bitmaps, so won't scale nicely if you have to increase their size, but they may well do nicely for your PP presentation. e.g.: convert file.eps file.jpg NB InageMagick is a suite of several programs, one of which is 'convert'. But, to find out what formats you might be able to convert between, see 'man ImageMagick'. And, to find out what formats you really have available, run convert -list format Hoping this helps, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fax-to-email: +44 (0)870 167 1972 Date: 07-Oct-03 Time: 01:56:04 ------------------------------ XFMail ------------------------------ ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
