search for: pdfwrite

Hi there folks I have R 1.3.0 running on Red Hat Linux 7.1 with GhostView 3.5.8. When I produce a file like: > bitmap("foo.pdf", type="pdfwrite") > plot(foo) > dev.off() and then try to read it with gv, I get an unrecoverable error and nothing displayed. Any help as to whether this ***should*** work would be appreciated. cheers, John -- John Williams Department of Marketing Otago University Dunedin, New Zealand -.-.-.-.-....

Hi, Without trying to print 1000000 points (see <http:// finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02a/archive/42105.html>), I often print maps for which I do not want to loose too much of coastline detail, and/or plots with 1000-5000 points (yes, some are on top of each other, but using transparency (i.e. rgb colors with alpha information) this actually comes through as useful information.

Hi list, When exporting to PDF a graph with a legend, in the final PDF, the text is going beyond the legend box. > dev2bitmap("test.pdf", type="pdfwrite", h=6, w=6) The legend looks OK on the screen. I noticed that the size of the legend box depends on the size of the screen window, which is not the case for other graphical parts (text of the legend, title, axis text...) Any tip on how to deal with this? Another problem I encounter, which m...

Is it possible to create a pdf output file with an (as nearly as possible) exact size? For example, if I want to draw in an A4 paper (210 x 297 mm) a square of 100 x 100 mm, how can I do it? FWIW, about 6 months ago I learned here how to create an exact png image. For example, if I want a 500 x 500 black square in a 1000 x 1000 white png, occupying the center of the png, the procedure is this:

Everyone, I am currently using a vsifax program (pcltotiff) to convert pcl files to tiff files on a SCO Unix box, and then I am using tiff2pdf on a Centos 5.9 box to convert the file to a pdf. There are other commands that deal with multiple page tiff's and pdf's that are part of the process, but the above basic process has worked very well. The only thing I would like to enhance is a
