Plot text is lost when importing matplotlib images to Microsoft Word 2013
Question: I am using `matplotlib 1.4.3` on `python 2.7` and am saving my plots as ".eps"
files on my linux server.

For my research paper, I need to include these images into `MS Word 2013`
where the text of my research lies. However, when I import the image into MS
word, all the text from the plot is lost e.g. axis labels, tick labels,
legends. Only the non-text parts of the image show up.

I searched multiple forums

I have tried converting the `.eps` file to `.emf` format as well using
<https://cloudconvert.com/eps-to-emf> and few other similar services, but the
issue with this process is that the font of my text changes. I have also used
`Inkscape 0.91`for converting `.eps` to `.emf` and there also the quality is
not good (the font changes, the grey shades become shades of red) and I am not
able to replicate the exact style as was there in `.eps` file.

Has anyone been able to solve this, issue ?


Answer: What seems to work is that I save as .png, then import in Powerpoint, select
and copy it and finally paste special in Word as .jpeg or .gif
