It works here on R 1.1.0 on Solaris. It probably means exactly what it
says: your pointsize is set so that the margins are too large, or perhaps
more accurately, what space is left after the margins are allocated is too
small.
Without knowing your OS, graphics device, device size and settings
there is not much more we can do to help, and possibly not much if we knew
all those.
