Dear Alan,

your description of the "bug" makes it very clear that the problem is with M$ Word 2004. Any solution should therefore come from Micro$oft... but this is very unlikely

However, you can always change word-processing software.

The "bug" does not appear with the following programs (just checked all of them):

- NeoOffice 2.2 (open-source and VERY Word-compatible)

- Pages'08

- M$ Word 2008 (v. 12.1.0)


time for an upgrade? or better, time for a final dump of M$ Word...

E.

I had noticed the same problem as posted by Margarte so I took Brian's
advice and downloaded R version 2.7.1 RC (2008-06-16 r45945) (running
on a Mac G5 (2 x 3 GHz Dual-core intel) and an iMac (2.4 GHz Core 2
Duo) both with OS 10.5.2.  I note that I still can not directly paste
a copied Quartz window figure into a Word document (2004 version).  I
could save and then insert a pdf version of the figure without a
problem, but the direct copy and past is very convenient.  This
problem does not arise when I try to copy & past into Pages 08 - works
perfectly!  Can we expect that this feature for Word documents will
return soon?
