In my statistics courses, graphs were kind of essential. While I agree with the sentiments of Bill's comment, statistics done with no graphs is generally a vegetarian steak dinner. The real messages are: - allow as much flexibility of tools to create material as possible - specify a format that is adequate and also compatible with the first requirement - this format should be relatively resistant to being messed up by the operating environment/ For me, pdf did the trick, but is isn't perfect. As noted in another comment in this thread, I also have found that LibreOffice works fine if you begin with a .doc created in Word. Bit of a nuisance, and I've no idea why this should be.
