R on AIX (>4.2)
Hi,
I'm determined to get R compiling & running on a machine running AIX
4.2. I've seen previous emails in the archive about this topic. The
main obstacle is getting dynamic loading to work, but it works for Tcl
and hence is feasable.
Questions:
- is anybody _currently_ working with R on AIX?
- why have previous fixes to the sources not been introduced into

Postscript device ignores title if it is too long. (PR#565)
Hi,
This may just be an inconsistency between terminal drivers, rather
than a proper bug.
If the main title of a plot is too wide to all fit on the plot, the
X11 driver prints as much of the title as it can, but the postscript
driver totally ignores the title.
Here's a simple example:
% R

Postscript font bugs (and a suggestion) (PR#914)
Documentation and other bugs with postscript():
1. This code crashes R (it asks for a font that isn't there):
postscript()
plot(0:1,0:1)
text(0.5,0.5,'crash',font=6)
The bug appears to be in the FixupFont routine in plot.c; on line 236,
it checks that the font number is in the range 1..32. Later this
crashes PostScriptStringWidth in devPS.c, because only fonts numbered
1..5

Special paper for postscript
Hi, All;
When I generate a "special" paper postscript image larger than "a4" or
"letter" using R, I can only see one-page portion of all image, of course.
What will be the simple solution for this? Is there any way I can set the
bounding box information on the image? Or any other suggestions?
Thanks in advance;

Autoconf / Windows package building problem for device package
Dear list,
Tadashi Kadowaki has developed a pdf device package
that allows to add hyperlinks and popups
to (currently) text, mtext and rect calls.
The package passes R CMD check (minor warnings) and compiles
on MacOS X and GNU/Linux, but we do not succeed in building
the package for Windows.
The current version of the package can be
checked out as

margins with postscript device
I've been having a problem when printing plots to a HP DeskJet 2500C printer.
This printer, like most inkjet printers, has a large minimum bottom margin.
For most HP inkjet printers, the bottom 1/2" (left 1/2" inch for landscape)
of the page can't be printed too. The postscript device in R has a default of
1/4" margins between the paper edge and the plotting area. This

patch for textspecial and defaultfont in xfig
Hello,
The current xfig device lacks the functionality to set the
textspecial flag and use the defaultfont in xfig. This is necessary
when you want to export to xfig and use interpreted text (e.g., $
\frac{1}{e}$ gets interpreted by latex). The attached patch adds this
functionality.
Why would you like to do this?
- Use math in labels (e.g., name your variables $r_{xy}$, do a

R-beta: postscript in R and R
I am creating postscript-graphics in R. When I import them into
a LATEX document it is impossible to get the caption close
to the figure. I run the same program in Splus, and no problem
of getting the caption just below the figure. Another thing,
the ps file that S created is only 10% of the size of the file
that R created. What is wrong? Are there some parameters to
be set?

pie EPS BB
Greetings all!
I'm facing a puzzle I have not been able to solve.
I need to make an EPS of a pie-chart (Yes, I know;
please don't bother to tell me! I just need to ...).
I'm trying to do it with pie(), and I want to have
just the plain pie-chart with no annotations. So far
so good: "labels=rep(NA,...)" will do it.
But I want to have it output to an EPS file with the

R-alpha: plot(1); axis(1, at=10) >>> Seg.fault -- and a patch
This problem has been mentioned by Arne Kovac <maak@stats.bris.ac.uk> on May 9-10.
The patch is really a replacement of 'axis' in RHOME/src/library/base/funs/
It contains the fixes which where proposed Arne Kovac
and fixes (all?) the errors he/she (?) reported on May 9.

eps file with embedded font
Dear list,
I am trying to make eps file with embedded font.
I use:
postscript("ranking-exp-all.eps", horizontal=TRUE, onefile=FALSE,
paper="special", height=8, width=12, family="Helvetica")
# plot stuff
dev.off()
since R does not embed font, I then use:

suggestion: postscript paper=user
Dear R developers and users,
I have a suggestion for the postscript device driver.
Now the paer= option only support "a4", "letter",
"legal", "executive". I suggest we add a "user" option
and letter user provide paper size, even like "595x421",
width>height.
For printing purpose, the provided paper size are
nearly enought. But I

Changing ComputerModern in postscript(...): A first attempt at contributing....
Hi
First off, thanks to all the various R developers, your package is very
impressive.
I'm not sure what the protocols are for contributing, and I've not done this
before, so please excuse nay obvious errors or oversights... Also I'm by no
means an R,TeX/LaTeX, or typesetting expert, I have largely stumbled my way
to this point.
Objective: I'd like to get R postscript(...) to

Postscript query: plotting long vectors
Hi,
I have a query about the maximum length of vector that can be plotted
in one go in a postscript driver. Try the following code (in 1.7.0;
version details below):
t <- seq(from=0, to=4*pi, length=200000)
y <- sin(t)
postscript(file="o.ps")
plot(t, y, type="l")
dev.off()
If I view the postscript file o.ps in "gv", it takes many seconds
before eventually
