Define an "outer margin area" at the top and put your overall title there. Find some illustrated examples of oma (outer margin area) and mar (margin area) here with mfrow/mfcol: http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Graphics/Basics/mar-oma/index.htm Perhaps this will get you started: # Outer margin area (South, West, North, East). # Default is all 0s, so ask for North oma of 2. # Trim some of the space form regular margins (mar) too. par(mfrow=c(3,4), mar=c(4,4.5,1,1), oma=c(0,0,2,0)) for (i in 1:12) { plot(0) } mtext("Overall Title", NORTH<-3, line=0.5, adj=0.5, col="red", outer=TRUE, cex=1.2) efg Earl F.
