Thanks for your answers, let me summarize the situation: 1. I've tested the SVG import for OO, it's not great but it is much better than what you get for EMF. I know nothing about SVG, though, perhaps it is not the best graphics format. 2. I need the figure displayed on the screen, I'm using Impress (the equivalent of ppt). Thus EPS is not an option, 3. I do not see any pdf import functionality in OO, I get it as text and in OO writer. PDF is not listed among the supported formats in Impress for inserting graphic files. I did not try the development version of OO, perhaps this is an alternative.
