similar to: Landscape problems with ps2pdf

Since I sent my original question last week, this is one of two suggestions that worked. Using Adobe Acrobat, as suggested by Professor Ripley, was very satisfactory, but required that I use multiple platforms to make the conversion to PDF (from Linux to Windows). The solution by Peter Adorjan (included below), also worked very well, and can be carried out on any platform using tools available

Hi all, I've got a nice working pdf samba printer emailing the right person thanks to PeteFwee and David F and am doing a little testing. I've just realized that it's set to Letter when it creates the .pdf file. and i've googled till i'm blue in the face and can't see any options that says page size or something similar. i'm running ghostscript 7.04. does anybody

I apologize for accidentally omitting some of the answers I got; here they are: ************** I use R regularly in my research in the pharmaceutical industry. I have used it for projects ranging from sample size and power curve estimation, analysis of laboratory data with mixed effects models, to analysis of mass spectrometry data. I have helped biologists here install and use it in limited

Hello together! How can I plot a landscape letter-format plot? With postscript, I just use the horizontal option and I get what I want, but it seems that the pdf lacks this option. Well, I could do a ps2pdf conversion of the generated ps-file. But is there a way to directly produce landscape pdf-plots with R? Thanks for any help. Greetings, Sebastian

hi 2.2.5, Sol 2.8 I have a perl script that I've written to convert a ps file to pdf file. I want the user to be able to setup a postscript printer in WNT/2k and convert ps files to pdf by printing to a [ps2pdf] printer share. [ps2pdf] comment = PS to PDF file in Home Directory path = /usr/spool/public guest ok = Yes print ok = Yes browseable = Yes printer = ps2pdf

Trying to get one Samba server to serve several printers through CUPS and host a virtual PDF "printer" at the same time. I've gotten them working separately, but not together, and I think I know why. In the smb.conf man page under "print command": "With printing = cups, and if SAMBA is compiled against libcups, any manually set print command will be ignored."

Hello! My graphs are produced using the "postscript"-option in R (R version 2.10.1 (2009-12-14)). When Greek letters are used on the axis, everything looks fine in the *.ps-file. If included in a LaTeX-file and (on Ubuntu 10.04, fresh install), the Greek letters appear in the DVI- and PS-output, however, if converted with ps2pdf they suddenly disappear. Could anyone suggest a

I'm trying to use the pictex driver for bargraphs, and the shading isn't showing up. Is there any way to get some sort of shading in the plots? A hatch or stipple would be fine, too; just some way to differentiate the bars. The postscript driver won't do, since I'm trying to embed this in a LaTeX document which I'll use pdflatex on and \includegraphics for pdftex doesn't

Hi, Is it possible to set up a printer in samba that will use ps2pdf converter to create pdf documents when printing on it ? Best Regards Steph

Dear r-bugs, When I create EPS files, they sometimes appear rotated in my LaTeX PDF document and sometimes they don't. Two examples: ## x1.eps is not rotated in LaTeX x <- seq(-1, 1, length=100) postscript("c:/x1.eps", height=3, width=4, horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, paper="special") plot(x, dnorm(x), type="l") dev.off() ## x2.eps is not

dear R wizards--- I would like to do some book-on-demand printing at a popular printer named lulu, but lulu requires inclusion even of the basic postscript fonts. Interestingly, my book itself does not need the 14 base acrobat fonts, only the embedded R figures do. Of course, I really would like to get pdftex to embed the fonts, but how to do this is not obvious either. [This method seems

I need a way to convert files that I save with Firefox as a 'print to file' to 'pdf' I tried 'convert' but that rendered the text as graphics which grew the file and wasn't what I wanted. How would someone accomplish this - or can I just print to a PDF? Craig

I use the following function to export some figures to .eps: p.eps <- function(p, fname, title = NULL, width, height) { postscript(file=fname, onefile=FALSE, paper="special", width=width, height=height, horizontal=FALSE) print(p + opts(title = title)) dev.off() } Whenever I have a page consisting of *only* figures exported in this way, Acrobat Reader shows them in

Hi, I have found references for the following problem in the list archives, but no nice solution. So I decided to post one I came up with. The problem is that graphs output as eps files, for example using ps.options(onefile=FALSE, paper="special", width=8, height=8, horizontal=FALSE, pointsize=12) get rotated when I convert them to pdf using epstopdf. Both ghostview and

Hi all, For some years now I have been using a simple system I found online which allows me to easily import data from Windows Programs. Hopefully others out there are using the system and already have found the answer to my problem. I have installed on my Centos server a virtual CUPS printer which receives a PS file, and then runs 'ps2pdf' and 'pdftotext -layout' to end up
