Charles, If these reasons are important however, this sounds like a
job for another product called "Numerics By Stata", which allows
producing graphs with Stata code and without showing them on the
screen.

Here is a link to the product page:
http://www.stata.com/products/numerics-by-stata/

Numerics by Stata is used in ADePT:

(some modules are producing Excel-editable graphs now, but e.g. the
'Education' module as of today is still using Stata's graphs).

If this appears like something close to what you intend to be doing,
contact StataCorp for a quote.

Best, Sergiy Radyakin
