I have had very good results when I read the Lotus graphs into 
Harvard Graphics and "enhanced them".  You can tell Harvard the
row/column values that you want to graph (which can be a little
tedious) or you can create a Lotus graph and 
read the .PIC file into Harvard.  Harvard Graphics is very easy
to learn, but has some rather advanced capabilities to
make your graphs look better.  It also has a screen show capability
with various features and you can put together a fairly impressive
computer slide show.  It can drive plotters, laser printers, 
the Videoshow system and a variety of other output devices.

If you have any specific questions on Harvard Graphics send them to
me E-mail and I can take a look at my manual.

I have no connection with the publishers of Harvard Graphics - I
just like their product.
