I have an app, targeting OS 10.4+, which creates graphs and saves

The EPS is generated "manually" by the program and, by itself, gives
essentially perfect printouts with a filesize of 4K or 8K.
However, this
file requires a preview so that, when inserted into MS Word, the

have something to look at (besides a rectangle). I have always
done this
using a PICT resource (#256) which Word recognizes.
This is kinda not what your asking, but have you tried saving your
images as PDF instead (or in addition to?) EPS and see what comes out
there? The file size should be comparable between the two and PDF is
generally rendered directly by applications instead of using a preview.

Failure is not an option. It is a privilege reserved for those who try.
