I personally use -rtfutil- (especially the -rtflink- module), as
mentioned in Austin Nichols' email below. I too would prefer to use
TeX/LaTeX, but a lot of my colleagues want Microsoft-ready
documents. So, I have to make them in Rich Text Format (RTF), with
the Stata graphs linked in using -rtflink- after exporting them to
Encapsulated PostScript using the -graph export- command. I then
convert the RTF documents to .doc or .docx documents manually
afterwards (by converting the linked documents to embedded documents
using "Edit links to files"). The manual part is a bit of a pain,
but, unfortunately, Microsoft products in general were not designed
to promote the human use of human beings.
I hope this helps.

Thanks! I am still wondering, though, what is wrong with just using
-copy graph- in the graph editor and then pasting into word? Is the
quality poor, or are their potential problems down the road, or what?

know that real statisticians sniff their noses at Word and use Latex
instead, but given that I am using Word is there a better way to do things?
