Copy Figure in high quality

Hi,

I am studying my PhD and I have to write some papers. I would like to ask you about the figure quality.

I use to copy the figure as "Preserve information" and paste in to Word (previously, I have modified the axis, size, fonts...), but which have higher quality to copy in to Word?

• Metafile
• Preserve information
• Bitmap

I know that .eps format is the best for vector graphics...

Does the copy option have more quality than save as .tif format (previously, I redering to 600dpi)?

Best regards,

Luis

In my experience, using Metafile (or sometimes called enhanced metafile) has better quality shown in Word and later in PDF file.
