R help - Feb 2006 - How to save R-grafics in eps format

Hello!
I used to save R-Grafics like this: postscript("file.ps").
Is there alsoa way to save them as eps?


Thank you very much

from ?postscript: 

     The postscript produced by R is EPS (_Encapsulated PostScript_)
     compatible, and can be included into other documents, e.g., into
     LaTeX, using '\includegraphics{<filename>}'.  For use in this
way
     you will probably want to set 'horizontal = FALSE, onefile      FALSE,
paper = "special"'.

Also, there is dev.copy2eps for copying from screen to EPS. Watch out
for pointsize and geometry differences though.

Dear Claudia,

This is how I save the plots as *.eps.

postscript(file="testplot.eps",
            paper="special",
            width=10,
            height=10,
            horizontal=FALSE)

yvalues = runif(100)
plot(yvalues)

dev.off()

HTH,

Martin Lam
