similar to: postscript file too large : maybe an R question

I've just upgraded our little network here to 2.0 beta 5. The server is a Data General Intel box running DGUX R4.20. Compile and install went incredibly well and things have just about working straight off. However, we experienced a little 'funny' this afternoon. A user was creating and deleting a postscipt file in a Unix directory. She then used Ghostview on the PC client to

Dear users, another question concerning graphics for publications. My favourite journal wants .eps-graphics, and from older postings i adapted the following code: postscript(file="Figure1.eps", title="Figure 1", width=11.5, height=8, paper="a4",onefile=FALSE) However,  when checking the properties of this file, it is a .ps and not a .eps file. So, i konverted to

Dear all I've got some problems submitting a manuscript, because I can't manage creating the favourable eps-file of a graph created in R. The journal's graphic requirements are as followed: format: eps width: max. 6 inches resolution: min. 1000 dpi supported fonts: Arial, Courier, Helvetica, Symbol, Times, Charcoal, Chicago, Geneva, Georgia, Monaco, Zapf, New York Itried to ways

I create lots of postscript files which I view with ghostview. The beginning of the files all begin something like %!PS-Adobe-3.0 %%DocumentNeededResources: font Helvetica %%+ font Helvetica-Bold %%+ font Helvetica-Oblique %%+ font Helvetica-BoldOblique %%+ font Symbol %%DocumentMedia: a4 595 841 0 () () %%Title: R Graphics Output %%Creator: R Software The consequence is that in ghostview,

Dear List: I am unsure if my problem is with Sweave or LaTeX. Anyhow, I am using the MikTeX distribution and TexnicCenter. I can easily create Sweave files and all goes well until I try to incorporate graphics. I use the same code as found in the examples found in the users manual. In R, the graphics I want are created as Sweave is creating the .tex file. When I examine the .tex file

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; Tae-Hoon Chung

Hi, a colleague of mine encountered some unexpected behavior regarding the postscript output from R. It's difficult for me to tell whether or not this is an R problem or a ghostview/gv/interpreter problem. Just to note, I think it's exactly the same situation reported here: http://finzi.psych.upenn.edu/R/Rhelp02/archive/25436.html The following code produces a working plot (no

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

Dear all, I am trying to create eps files of R plots (in Linux) so that I can import them into Word (obviously in MS Windows). What I would like is for the files to be cropped so that there is no margin around the actual plot, because I have no way of editing the files after they have been created. I have tried using par(mai=c(.75,.75,0,0)) in order to reduce the margin; it works fine when I

I like the fact that the postscript function enables the possbiility of a more useful title than before. However, I'd prefer the default to be the file name. It's very simple for me to make my own postscript function that does just that simply by setting title = file. I always use onefile = TRUE, so it always works (so far). However, I'm a little reluctant to do that in case some

Is there any R function that can display a Postscript file that is already in the working directory? For example, if 'graph.ps' is such a file, I'd like to type something like this: > plot.postscript.file(file = 'graph.ps') If no such function exists, I'd be interested in a way to use existing R functions to do this under UNIX or Windows, preferably without a system

I have a minor problem with the PostScript generated by R-0.63.1. Specifically, the files generated *will* work in: ghostview on an HP LaserJet on an Apple LaserWriter *will not* work in: ghostscript under xdvi on a SPARCprinter The error message on the SPARCprinter was Error: /invalidfont Command: 'definefont' Ostack: /Font5 /Font5 font(Symbol,1) Estack:

It seems that the text command isn't working for a postscript device. Here is my code: #----------------------------- # I have stored some data in a 21 by 21 matrix called mat x <- 1:ncol(mat); y <- 1:nrow(mat); labs <- c(" ", "1298", "1537", "TP53", "786", "974", "1303", "1288", "1294",

Hi, I've installed Samba and started up the processes; however, I do not see the Samba server in Network Neighborhood. In using the DIAGNOSIS.txt file, I cannot get past test 3: ./smbclient -U% -L localhost. The output is as follows: added interface ip=140.188.120.55 bcast=140.188.120.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session setup failed: Call returned zero bytes (EOF) Any insight into this

hi everyone : i'm not sure if my previous mail about this got sent. i was typing and erroneosuyl hit a button and lost what i was typing. anyway, i have the code below ( it works ) in which i run through the rows of a dataframe, taking out the first two fields which are characters strings ( with some extra spacing so i yuse gsub) and appending these character strings to a list so that i can

To the plot experts: when creating a plot containing different lines, each with a special line type, it may happen that the result of 'postscript()' is not readable by ghostview (which may not be an R error, thus not bug report ;-). This is the case when mixing lty as 0:6 and character or even when using lty as character only. Example: postscript("test.ps") plot(1:10,

I've created a bunch of postscript trees (post.rpart), which I subsequently edit in Adobe Acrobat 4.05 (I need additional labelling that isn't easy to add with R). After editing the labels and annotations using Acrobat, I then export the file to Adobe's .eps format so I can insert the picture into a Microsoft Word 2000 document. The .pdf file distilled from the .ps file is

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,

Ive created a postscript files that looks just like I want it to look except instead of being 6'' x 6'' i want it to be 2''x 2''. i used the postscipt() function (R 1.5.1 on redhat). if i use width and height in par to change the scale the figure looks terrible cause cex,mar,etc.. dont appear to change. before i start tinkering with the cex's and mar... is
