Hi, If I wish to have an exact-copy (i.e., the way R-window displays) of a portion of my on-screen R-commands and their output on an existing Word document, how do I do it ? I have tried with windows "print-screen" command, but the resolution becomes poor in the destination document. Also, for plots, I usually save them as .tiff, and then "import" them to the Word document - although the size of the document starts getting bigger very quickly. Is it the right way to do ? Please reply. regards, Chintanu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Is it the right way to do ? Hi, Chintanu. Graphics can take up a fair bit of disk space, yes. You might want to look as Sweave (for conversion of R code and text to latex and PDF. There is also odfWeave that can take a document with woven R code into an OpenOffice document. Sean
