Hi All,
I need a file which I can import to MS Word, I'm trying win.metafile(), but
it does not seem to support multiple print commands at once (please see
below). Is there an alternative to get plots file which can be used in
powerpoint/word?
# R code:
# this does not work; but same thing works with pdf()
library(lattice)
win.metafile("test.wmf")
p1 <- xyplot(decrease ~ treatment, OrchardSprays, groups = rowpos,
type = "a",
auto.key list(space = "right", points = FALSE, lines =
TRUE))
p2 <- xyplot(sunspot.year ~ 1700:1988, xlab = "", type =
"l",
scales = list(x = list(alternating = 2)),
main = "Yearly Sunspots")
print(p1, split=c(1,1,2,1), more=TRUE)
print(p2, split=c(2,1,2,1))
dev.off()
Can anyone help please, thanks,
Kim

?win.metafile
For win.metafile only one plot is allowed per file, and Windows seems to
disallow reusing the file. So the *only* way to allow multiple plots is to
use a parametrized filename as in the example.
win.metafile("Rplot%02d.wmf", pointsize = 10)
Notice the %02d in the file name.

What is the problem that you are trying to solve?

You may want to check out the odfWeave package for another way to produce multiple plots in a format that can be easily saved as a word doc. -- Gregory (Greg) L.
