similar to: dev2bitmap error, 'gs' cannot be found

Hi, I don't know if I am the first one to report the problem: in 2.8.0 dev2bitmap gained aa support, but "extra" is null if neither taa nor naa is specified. > dev2bitmap("plot.pdf",type="pdfwrite") Error in paste(shQuote(gsexe), " -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -q -sDEVICE=", type, : object "extra" not found >

Hi, I've installed several versions of R on a number of Window systems. I get the following error message (which I don't get on linux) > dev2bitmap(file="test.jpeg",type="jpeg") Error in system(paste(gsexe, "-help"), intern = TRUE, invisible = TRUE) : gswin32c.exe not found Any idea how to fix this? It seems common to all windows systems

Hi, I want to simulate a data set with similar covariance structure as my observed data, and have calculated a covariance matrix (dimensions 8368*8368). So far I've tried two approaches to simulating data: rmvnorm from the mvtnorm package, and by using the Cholesky decomposition (http://www.cerebralmastication.com/2010/09/cholesk-post-on-correlated-random-normal-generation/). The problem is

Hi, using too long pathnames for bitmap() crash R on WinXP. I've verified that this is the case with R version 2.4.1 Patched (2007-03-25 r40958) and R version 2.5.0 alpha (2007-03-30 r40957). I cannot reproduce it on Linux. REPRODUCIBLE EXAMPLE: % Rterm --vanilla # Tell R where Ghostscript is gsexe <- "C:/gs/gs8.54/bin/gswin32c.exe"; gsexe <- "C:/Program

Hi R users, dev2bitmap() is not working for me in R-1.1.0. It says: > dev2bitmap("aaa.png") Error in device(...) : Object "width" not found Anyone else has this problem?

Dear all, When saving a plot with the dev2bitmap command: name <- c("test.jpeg") dev2bitmap(name,type="jpeg",height=8,width=13,res=400) Everything seems to be ok... After importing this picture in CORELDRAW (for a poster A0) format the resolution and colors are not optimal. How can I save pictures (colors/resolution) optimally for import into CorelDraw for an

Issue: I have a R script that is invoked periodically by another process. In the script, a graphics is generated and I want to get a the image for the graph as a jpeg. Here is a prototypical version of the script (try.R): plot(1) dev2bitmap("try.jpg", type = "jpeg") I am running R-1.0.0 on Solaris 7. The script is invoked as: R --vanilla < try.R A file named try.jpg is

Hi, I am trying to put some graphics I have generated from R on a webpage using dev2bitmap to create a bitmap, .BMP, file. When I look at my notes from 2 or 3 months ago I was successfully able to put the ACTIVE device plot result into a bitmap file using a command such as: dev2bitmap("InsectSpray.BMP") Job done! Now when I try the same command, I get the following: >

Hy all, I wish to get rid of starting X to get graphics, i tryed dev2bitmap and i've being working around without finding good parameters. By example : Dev2bitmap(file="Rplot001.png", type = "png256",width=600/72,height=486/72) par(mar=c(5,2,1,1),xaxs = "i", yaxs = "i",ps=13) I tryed with res=something inside dev2bitmap too and i'm

A colleague designed a script for a bar plot, which I'd like to export to my directory via the barplot command: bitmap(file="barplot.tif", type="tifflzw", height=4, width=6.5, res=1250) Unfortunately, this command produces the following error message: Error in system(paste(gsexe, "-help"), intern = TRUE, invisible = TRUE) : 'gswin32c.exe' not found

It would be nice for checking documentation to be able to generate the "see also" cross references (e.g. the list of functions where dev2bitmap is linked as a "see also" reference.) Perhaps this already exists? (BTW, it would be useful to have a "see also" reference to dev2bitmap in the help for postscript and for Devices.) Paul Gilbert

Hi All I still have a problem with ?bitmap? function in R, I have downloaded ghostscript 8.71 and added the path to the executable to the path environment variable, by going to the control panel , system, advanced system settings, added C:\Program Files(x86)\gs\gs8.71\bin to the path variable. I have also added the R executable path to the path variable. I have a 64 bit computer with windows 7

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

I am having trouble saving graphs. Using the Aqua interface (which is not my preferred interface), I have no problems plotting a graph, adding additional lines, points, references, etc., and then saving it to a file using, for example, the dev2bitmap command. I have found that, running R with Xemacs+ESS under X11 (which I prefer over Aqua), this is not possible. I can either send the graph to a

Hi, I am trying to generate plots on our unix (no X) server to be included in our web-pages -> specifically pngs. Without X, png() obviously doesn't work, so I have been trying to define the graphics print device bitmap as described in the help: > bitmap(file="plot.png", type = "png256", height = 6, width=6,res=72) > pie(c(12,5)) >

Using R-1.1.1 on RedHatLinux 6.2. I've made some progress, succeeded in outputting bitmap, jpeg, and png files. Yipee. I did them with this command: > dev2bitmap("whatever.bmp",res=300) > dev.print(png, file="myplot.png", width=480, height=480) > dev.print(jpeg, file="myplot.jpg", width=480, height=480) > dev.print(pictex,

Michael Lapsley was suggesting on R-help direct copies to gif/png/jpeg. The following seems to do a sensible job for me of copying the current device to any bitmap format supported by gs. The manipulation is needed to work around assumptions made by postscript(), and I think better fixed in postscript() (but not a couple of days before a release). I want to make onefile=FALSE work on
