Hello Marc, If you have a laser printer driver you will be able to save EPS files via the "Print" command - but print to a file instead of the printer. Cut and paste just copies the bit of the screen that you select and, as you have found, you wont be able to do much with it. As CellQuest graphics have bitmap and vector based elements, you want to create an EPS file. I generally use Illustrator for poster graphics - you can ungroup axes/plots etc, add text and other graphics etc although it is generally a good idea to get the CellQuest graphic to as close as possible as you want before saving (and select a small page size if you arent using all the default A4). I am sure that one of the Mac gurus on the list can add more but there is also a uesful webpage at: http://mcbi-34.med.nyu.edu/dmc/making_eps_files_mac.html Have fun!
