I can insert EPS into word and it looks good on the screen. When I print
the file, it looks not so good as file by inserting WMF or CGM(vector form)
figure. So I always convert PS to WMF. But sometimes the converted figure
is not the same as original one. I am puzzled.

By the way, idl can produce CGM and WMF figure. But they cannot be
controlled easily, sometimes the figure cannot be used(all black....).
