Publicon is based on Mathematica 5.x, so the backward compatibility of
graphics is not expected to work.

Similarly pasting graphics from Mathematica 6 to Mathematica 5.x won't
work.   However if, as was discussed earlier on this group, you load a
"backward compatibility engine" by executing

<< Version5`Graphics`

then, in all liklihood, the copy and paste back to Publicon will
work.  Of course you lose much of the important Version 6 stuff, but
if this is important for your work then this will save you for the
moment until a version of Publicon based on Mathematica 6 comes out.

After executing  << Version5`Graphics` and doing your plots you shoudl
re-upgrade to Mathematica 6 by executing

<< Version6`Graphics`

Hope tha this helps,
