graphviz

I have created a GraphViz dot-file to visualize a data flow. I have to write a documentation using Microsoft Word and I'd like to include the graph in the document.

For some wired reason, MS Word is not able to import SVG files. Then, I generated a .eps file using

dot -Teps plan.dot -o plan.eps But once imported into Word, the picture looks horrible. I also tried to convert the svg to wmf using Inkscape. It also looked horrible.

Is there a clean way to generate a file using GraphViz that Word can read?
