Hi.
One guy of my team (Thibaut Jombart) wrote a driver to sweave in png
(see http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/devel/06/03/4599.html). The
driver works very nice and is very useful for plots with many points,
raster images... I thought that Friedrich Leisch would include it in the
Sweave distribution, but it is not in the current distribution.
I am sure that you can ask Thibaut (jombart_at_biomserv.univ-lyon1.fr)
for the function.
Sincerely.
