Hi all, I saw a thread from 2007 about the possible implementation of a PGF (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pgf/) graphics device. Does anyone know if something came of it? I would very much like if that was the case. Regards, Lasse
I think the pgfSweave project on R-forge is working on this (as far as i know it currently relies on eps2pgf) http://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=331 HTH, Baptiste On 6 May 2009, at 15:37, Lasse Bombien wrote:> Hi all, > I saw a thread from 2007 about the possible implementation of a PGF > (http://sourceforge.net/projects/pgf/) graphics device.

Otherwise, I would be content using eps2pgf.

Have you contacted the author of eps2pgf? A while back I had a plot generated by R that produced an error in eps2pgf, I sent a copy of it to the author of eps2pgf and within a couple of days he sent me a new version that worked with my plot. But he cannot fix problems that he does not know about. -- Gregory (Greg) L.

In fact, eps2pgf worked fine in my example after building it from svn.

This is correct, pgfSweave currently relies on eps2pgf. Our goal for the summer is to develop a pgf device. This will help with performance as well as the eps conversion problems that some have referred to. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/PGF-Device-tp23406917p23436385.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
