R help - Aug 2007 - Histogram Title Size&Font

Hello, I would like to plot a histogram with title "Return", and I
would like
the font for the title to be "Bold" and the size to be 8( as in
Excel).

I tried the following code, but it does not make any change. Could anyone
give me some advice?

hist (preturn, seq(-0.05,0.05,0.005),freq = FALSE, main="Return",
font=2,
cex=8,xlab="return",xlim=c(-0.05,0.05))


Many thanks.
