Hello, I have found that Open Office does not accept imbedded postscript files, which is my output format of choice, when using R for plotting, et. al.. Grudgingly, I have to admit that MS Word does accept postscript files. So, when presentation has to be perfect, I use Latex. Will Open Office ever accept postscript?
