So on my machine, a png device can get graphics output. That should
provide all of the functionality of a wmf format and be much more
cross-platform.
Not so: wmf is a primarily a vector format: however PDF is a good

Thank you for the correction. I had conflated "lossless format" with
"vector format". Perhaps the OP will be happier with pdf output. Will
he be able to use cmd-S to bring up a Save as dialog if he is not
running from R.app?
