You can export graphics into other programs in two main ways: (1) simply copy graphs from any graph window and paste them directly into the drawing package; or (2) generate a layout, and either save the output to the clipboard (and paste it directly into a drawing package), or save the output to a disk file (and read it from the drawing package).

When you paste a graph into a drawing package (or read it from a disk file saved by a layout), it is a group of objects. You can ungroup the objects and access each one individually. All text is formatted as 12-point Palatino. All lines are one-point wide (with the exception of high-resolution contour plots; see below). The graph of the events themselves (internal to the axes), is either a line-drawing or a bitmap.

All histograms and CDF plots are copied as line drawings. This means that when you ungroup the plot, you can click on the histogram and change its line style (bold, dashed, color) and/or fill pattern (the default fill pattern is "No fill") and color. This allows you to overlay histograms and/or CDF plots easily (simply paste them on top of each other).  (Note that you can also use the Layout Editor to overlay graphics for you).
