I do this daily on Windows NT - run the plot with IDL, do
a CTL-G to save the plot in the windows clipboard and
EDIT/PASTE into PowerPoint.

Put it sounds like you are running the plot on UNIX. Try
saving the plot as CGM. PowerPoint will INSERT/PICTURE
as a CGM. Older versions of PowerPoint will INSERT/PICTURE
the plot as GIF.
