Just a note to say what I did. I think that the results were OK but I have
yet to hear from the journal.
1. I saved the Word document under another name.
2. I deleted all the contents of the document except the target graphic.
3. I printed to file yielding a .prn file.
4. I changed the extension
Hi,
I am revising a paper that I am a co-author of. The figures are plots
generated from R but at the moment I do not have the R code that generates
them.
As this is time critical I would like to slightly abuse the list by asking
whether anyone knows how to extract from MS Word into a
Hi,
I would also like to know how to do this with MS products alone.
However, a nice tool to do this is wmf2eps (http://www.wmf2eps.de.vu/).
You can paste windows vector graphics into wmf2eps, and it first saves
it as EMF (enhanced metafile), before it creates EPS, which is what I
use it for.
Click the graphic, press ctrl-C to copy it to the clipboard and then
using ctrl-V paste it into mspaint or Xnview (free, find it via google) or other
graphics program and then save it from there. Which program will
work will depend on the format of the image.
Another possibility is to save the
Another way to do this is with OpenOffice (OO). Read the Word file
into OO Writer. Cut the figure. Open OO Draw. Click Paste, and
the figure appears in Draw. Save it as EPS, or whatever you
like. This works for both EMF and WMF.

Thanks to all those who responded to my request about extracting R plots
from MS Word. I decided to try Gabor Grothendieck's second suggestion and
saved the Word document as html. (I may yet try some of the other
suggestions.)
Saving the .doc as .htm indeed produced a folder with many of the
I think these are zipped emf and wmf files. Google for emz extension.
