Lineweight with EMF figures

Lineweight with EMF figures

Lineweight with EMF figures

(OP)
Hi,

I am trying to export some figures as EMF... when I import them into word they look great, however when I go to print them the plotted lines are very light and really tough to see. I try increasing the linewidth to something like 1.25 but the EMF figure doesn't change! It only changes when the linewidth is 1.5! but that's way too big for me.

Is there someway to work around this? I need publication style plots, and EMF seems to work the best with word. I tried using EPS but when word imports it, it does not look the same as if it was opened in photoshop.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!
