Hola! I am producing postscript output from R (windows 98), both using firts the windows devicd and then " copy to postscript", or using the postscript device directly. The problem shows up equally both ways. The function producing the plot is given below. The only difference I can see with this function and other I have producing plots, is that this uses split.screen(). I include the plot in latex, and the result is 1) a very small, unreadabkle plot and 2) the plot is rotated on head! I had no problems with other functions: boot.stat <- function (x, B = 1000, norm = FALSE) { xname <- deparse(substitute(x)) means <- meds <- numeric(B) for (i in 1:B) { s <- sample(x, replace = TRUE) means[i] <- mean(s) meds[i] <- median(s) } CImedian <- quantile(meds, c(0.025, 0.5, 0.975)) CImean <- quantile(means, c(0.025, 0.5, 0.975)) hmean <- hist(means, freq = FALSE, plot = FALSE) hmeds <- hist(meds, freq = FALSE, plot = FALSE) split.screen(c(1, 2)) xlims <- range(c(hmean$breaks, hmeds$breaks)) ymax <- max(c(hmean$density, hmeds$density)) screen(1) plot(hmean, freq = FALSE, col = "red", xlim = xlims, ylim = c(0, ymax), xlab = paste("Sampling dist. of mean of ", xname), main = "") bringToTop() if (norm) { n <- length(x) mu <- mean(x) sd <- sqrt(var(x)/n) ps <- seq(xlims[1], xlims[2], len = 100) lines(ps, dnorm(ps, mu, sd), col = "darkgreen") } lines(CImean, rep(ymax/2, 3)) points(CImean[2], ymax/2, cex = 2, col = "black") screen(2) plot(hmeds, freq = FALSE, col = "lightblue", xlim = xlims, ylim = c(0, ymax), xlab = paste("Sampling dist. of median of ", xname), main = "") if (norm) { n <- length(x) p <- 1/2 mu <- median(x) d <- density(x, n = 1, from = mu, to = mu)$y sd <- sqrt(p * (1 - p)/n)/d ps <- seq(xlims[1], xlims[2], len = 100) lines(ps, dnorm(ps, mu, sd), col = "darkgreen") } lines(CImedian, rep(ymax/2, 3)) points(CImedian[2], ymax/2, cex = 2, col = "black") names(B) <- "Number of bootstrap replicactions" invisible(list(CImean = CImean, CImedian = CImedian, B, means means, meds = meds)) } call with for example: boot.stat(rnorm(100)) Kjetil Halvorsen. -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
