Dear R users: I assigned students to make some graphs and I'm having trouble answering some questions that they have. We are all working on R 2.1 on Fedora Core Linux 4 systems. 1. In the plot, the axis is not labeled by "numbers", but rather scientific notation like "-2e+08" or such. We realize that means -200,000,000. We want to beautify the plot. We would rather

[Env: R 2.12.2, Win XP] I'm creating figures using MASS::eqcsplot to provide equal scaling of the axes. My figures work OK when I plot to the screen, but when I try to do the same plot as a postscript file, I get an unexplicable error, > figframe() Error in if (yuin > xuin * ratio) yuin <- xuin * ratio else xuin <- yuin/ratio : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed >

Hello everyone, I'm currently trying to export a couple of graphs to pdf . Postscript would be fine too, but I'm using odd page dimensions, which seem to be overwritten when using the "ps2pdf" command. I'm using the pdfpages package in LaTeX to put 6 graphs onto one page (this is why it ought to be a pdf in the end). I have two problems: 1. I'm using

I would like to add a footnote to this graph but do not see a "footnote" command in the package:lattice documentation. I would like to note the "span=.8" as the footnote. postscript(file= ?C:/Documents and Settings/dsonneborn/My Documents/Slovak/output/pcb_tables/smooth_PCB_lines_four.ps?, bg=?transparent?, onefile=FALSE, pointsize=20,paper=?letter?, horizontal=TRUE,

Hi all. I'm working with a short plot (3x3 inches), but the results (via postscript command) are not nice. The lwd command don't affect the lines (that are very large) and the margins don't change using oma, mai, mar, ... Below I put an example. Moreover, save the graphics via postscript command isn't working well (see the attached ps). Thanks by the help, Cezar Freitas.

Dear all, I'm trying to produce 2 png files, one consisting of an image plot and a color-table (also an image plot) and the other one consisting of 4 image plots and a color table. I'd like the color table to be exactly the same. The way I proceded is the following: for one plot and the color-table png(file = png.file, width = 650, height = 800, pointsize = 16) layout(matrix(c(1, 2),

Hello, I came across this by using R cmd check - otherwise I would probably not have noticed. One of my functions does something like this: # postscript() # plot(1, xlim = c(0, 10), ylim = c(0, 4), type = "n", ann = FALSE, axes = FALSE) # text(1:10, 2, c("a","b"), cex = seqcex, family="mono",font=2) Which results in the error: Error in text.default(1:10, 2,

Hi, When I place a legend on a plot it looks exactly as I intended on the screen. However, almost always, when I export this to postscript file, the legend's text protrudes through the legend's frame (the latter being placed correctly). See the appended example code. I can send the EPS file as well for those that are interested (<4 kb; <200 lines). I found nothing in the FAQS,

Ei-ji Nakama has pointed out (from another Japanese user, I believe) that postscript() and pdf() have not been handling kerning correctly, and this is a request for opinions about how we should correct it. Kerning is the adjustment of the spacing between letters from their natural width, so that for example 'Yo' is usually typeset with the o closer to the Y than 'Yl' would be.

Hi R-users, I am using "postscript("xx.eps", horizontal=FALSE, onefile=FALSE, height=6, width=10, pointsize=10)" and "barplot(xx.dat)" in R to produce EPS graphics for LATeX document. When checking the graphics with "gv" I see that it was not produced with full details. The main graphic is there, but axes labels and titles are missing. While checking the

HI, I would like to know if it's possible to create a postscript file with multiple graphs . I'm creating some graphs by the means of a loop and I want to save each graph in the same file (splitting making the device by the number of graphs). Do I have to use the par(matrix()) option, the layout() function or the split.screen() one ? Thanks Nolwenn

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 list. I was saving my modified pairs graphic using a custom panel from the R Graphics site, and I got an interesting difference in the final image when I save it as eps or png. This custom panel make possible to show at the left side of the pairs plot the p-value as symbol and the correlation r value with its cex proportional to the r value itself. Well, when saving as a png file

I am trying to send a manuscript to a journal. One of the figures build by R is in the right orientation and 4 are rotated clockwise 90 deg in the preview. I used the right click save to PS option and I used the command line postscript("c:/temp/fig04.eps",bg="transparent",onefile = TRUE ,pointsize=20,paper = "letter",height=8,width=8,horizontal=FALSE,family =

dear R wizards: is it possible to use a postscript font symbol as a plot symbol? in particular, I want to use the four postscript symbols for playing cards (club, heart, spade, diamond) as points. In LaTeX, these four are \Pisymbol{psy}{"A7} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A8} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A9} \Pisymbol{psy}{"A10} and what I would love to do is place them, at say, (x=1,y=1),

Dear list members, i am trying to create multiple figures with identical layout (i.e. font sizes etc.) for a publication created with Latex. To do so (i.e. to get identical font sizes) I save all plots as a pdf with widths and heights as they would later appear in the paper (to prevent scaling etc.). My problem now is that I create several multipanel plots with par(mfrow=c(...)) which sometimes

The following code produces an eps file with the tops of each of the ylabs clipped off. par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(runif(10), ylab="Function(Lengthy Expression)",xlab="Prediction") plot(runif(10), ylab=expression(Delta * Beta^2),xlab="Prediction") plot(runif(10), ylab="Function(Lengthy Expression)",xlab="Prediction")

When I generate levelplot figures with Postscript, the lines from the underlying grid (i.e., the x and y in z ~ x* y) show up as faint white lines in the output. If I have a dense grid, the lines wash out the contour colors. I can avoid the problem if I use png instead, but that brings up other problems. Any ideas for how I can get Postscript to not show those lines around the cells? Scott

Dear R users, I have a lot of experience with traditional R graphics, but I decided to turn to trellis as it was recommended for spatial graphs by the sp package. In traditional R graphics I always first set the size of the device region absolute units (e.g. mm) and then I firmly fix the inner margins with mai and the outer margins with oma also in absolute units. What is left from the device

I've been accustomed to specifying a postscript file and pointsize like so: trellis.device(postscript, file = "something.ps", pointsize = 8) Using version _ platform i686-pc-linux-gnu arch i686 os linux-gnu system i686, linux-gnu status major 1 minor 9.0 year 2004
