Dear S-users,
Thank you for all the useful suggestions. Most people suggested
that I save the files as postscript, convert to encapsulated
postscript and then import the plots into Word. Even
though you can't see them in Word, the plots should come
out if the document is sent to a postscript printer.
Because I needed to do many plots and needed to be able to
see them in Word the solution I've ended up using is one
that fixes the problem in the wmf files output from
trellis.device(win.printer,file="filename.wmf",format="wmf")
The way to do it is to create a new strip.default function and
adjust the "y" position in
do.call("text", c(list(x = 0.5, y = 0.5, labels = strip.names),
par.strip.text))
in the style that you are using in strip.default. With cex=0.5
I found y=0.6 was suitable.
Granted, this is a hack, but it seems to work....
Thanks again to all who responded.
Dale Wilson.
