 I have GNU Octave, version 3.6.4 installed on my 10.9.1 Macbook via fink. The plots are clear when I manually set the environment to plot in aquaterm, but I prefer x11 if possible.

X11 on Mac OSX doesn't do any anti-aliasing.  If you can tell us what version of Octave you are running and where you get if from, as well as what version of Mac OSX you are running it on we'll be able to help out.

To save a graph to include in a word document, try ....

        print test.png

And then add the png picture to your word document.  Word on Mac OSX lets you use PDF files for pictures, which often gives a superior result.  If you are running Octave whose version is 3.4.x, 3.6.x, or 3.8.x, then you can ....

        print -dpdfwrite test.pdf

I am new to octave, and do not much about it. I would also like to know how to save the graphs from X11 to say, a word document. Thanks for the help in advance.
