for word documents submitted to picky journals i usually use seomthing
like this:

bitmap("plot_1.png",width=6,height=6,res=600,pointsize=12,family="Times")

on my computer this resutls in quality  just as good (to mu eye) as with
postscript. you can also use adobe acrobat to convert postsctipt to
something else.
