When I export a graphic into a windows metafile, import that file into a Word document, the width of the character of my title isn’t uniform anymore. The only way I found for solving this problem is to use the courier font, but I would like to use a font like (font.main=1). Does anybody know about that problem? obs<-matrix(scan("D:\\.....) win.metafile(filename = "D:\\....wmf", width = 5.7, height = 8.8, pointsize = 12) par(mfrow=c(3,1)) plot(obs[,3][1:5],obs[,5][1:5], main="Abgewiesene Kunden in % des Dynamikgrades",cex.main=1.25) plot(obs[,3][1:5],obs[,6][1:5], main="Wegstrecke",cex.main=1.25) plot(obs[,3][1:5],obs[,7][1:5],main="Verspätung",cex.main=1.25) dev.off() Thanks Andreas [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

After inserting the wmf into Word, just right click on it and choose Picture Object | Open at which point you are placed in an editor in which each of the titles and other objects in your picture are separately accessible and can easily be modified using Word's capabilities.

It was not uniform when you plotted on-screen in R: Arial/Helvetica is a not a monospaced font.> The only way I found for solving this problem is to use the courier font, > but I would like to use a font like (font.main=1).

Note also that Word is far from perfect at importing WMF files so you could easily be seeing a Word bug. -- Brian D.
