Our department is 'graphics challenged' when it comes to producing quality, professional-looking charts out of MS Excel (R).
I am seeking FReeper advice on what plugins or packages out there are RECOMMENDED to take what comes out of Excel and turn those graphics into sharp, professional graphics for the web, Word and PowerPoint.
What do you guys recommend?
CAVEAT: not sure we have a staffer who will take the time to employ Photoshop for real.

See your FReepmail.
Thanks!
Aw, I wanted to know how to do this also.
Learning Photoshop can be a carreer in itself
I taught my daughters - I joke that they can put themselves through college
Have you considered subbing it out ?
Forget excel and get a professional graphing product such as SigmaPlot 11 from Systat.
We do now. Slows down the process. Work is excellent though. Looking to bring it in house to speed process and gain control, enable experimentation.
Here is the link: http://www.sigmaplot.com/products/sigmaplot/sigmaplot-details.php
It also does a wide variety of statistical analysis. Very easy interface. I’ve been using this product for about 20 years and it does 99% of what I need.
Thanks! forwarded to the ‘guys’ for consideration.
