I have dealt with the same problem. This is how I get around it.
I save the Stata graphs as an EMF file (my personal preference). I then
insert the emf file into Word (or PowerPoint). You can then edit the
graph in Word (or PowerPoint). You will have to convert the graph to a
MS Object and then ungroup the graph. This will allow you to select
specific bars in your graph and change colors or fills.
Hope this helps.

Subject: st: PROBLEM fillling in a gray scale for the bars for graph bar
Dear all,
thank you very much for your incredible help!
I need my graphs to look good printed black and white.
The bars need to be filled out, idealy with some black
white pattern (e.g. dots, vertical lines) or even a
clear gray scale might work.
I am running into the following problem:
. graph bar (asis) cov02 cov05 , ///
> over(stratum, relabel(1 "Tirana" 2 "Coastal" 3
"Mountain" 4 "Central" 5 "Total") ) ///
> legend(label(1 "Coverage in 2002") label(2 "Coverage
in 2005") ) ytitle("percent of individuals") ///
> blabel(bar, pos(inside) format(%9.0f) color(white))
bar(1 bfc(gs0)) bar(2 bfc(gs50)) ///
> note("Source: LSMS 2002 and 2005.")
invalid bar number, 1 bfc(gs0)
invalid syntax
invalid syntax
invalid syntax
invalid syntax
Any ideas how I hsould do it? How about a fill in
pattern?
Thank you in advance!
Best,
Anna
