Thank you, Chris.

(1)
I am indifferent regarding the format (bitmap or vector) as long as it is 
something I can display in a Windows form.
Most standard graphics formats should be acceptable.

(2)
Saving the custom output, re-reading it and returning it via COM (encoded in 
some way) would indeed be an option.
I'll wrap the plot function into something that does the job and give it a try.

(3)
I have only a JDLLServer. How would I get access to a JEXEServer and what's the 
difference between the two?

What format would you like to get from Plot? Right now, most custom outputs 
write to file, but of course those files could be read in by J and returned via 
COM.

The plot outputs specific to Qt should be available to a JEXEServer. See 
code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Guides/OLE_Automation for setting this up.
