Dear useRs: Is there a way to include a raster image (e.g., .gif, .jpg, .bmp) representing a company logo, a school logo, etc. into an R graphic? For example, it would be nice to be able to include the logo of the school into the charts that a student produces for her dissertation. Similarly, while working on a competitive analysis, it would be nice to be able to replace the names of the competitors with their brand logos. My searches so far led to inconclusive results and, therefore, any suggestions are welcome. Thank you so much.

Look at the subplot function in the TeachingDemos package. One of the examples shows a scatterplot using the R logo as the points. You may also want to look at the my.symbols function in the same package. -----Original Message----- From: "Tudor Bodea" <gtg757i at mail.gatech.edu> To: "r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch" <r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch> Cc: "Tudor Bodea" <gtg757i at mail.gatech.edu> Sent: 6/16/08 9:11 PM Subject: [R] Insert raster image into an R graphic Dear useRs: Is there a way to include a raster image (e.g., .gif, .jpg, .bmp) representing a company logo, a school logo, etc. into an R graphic?

Creg: Thank you so much for your leads. I will take a look at the package and let you know how it goes.

If the logo is in a vector format, the 'grImport' package might also be useful.
